Pinus flexilis, or limber pine, is a native Canadian tree known for its adaptability to rocky slopes and windy sites. Native to western North America, specifically the Rocky Mountains and Intermountain Ranges, it extends from southeastern British Columbia and southwestern Alberta in Canada south to northern Arizona and New Mexico, and southwestern California in the United States. It thrives in moist, well-drained soils and tolerates both acidic and alkaline conditions. This low-maintenance tree is less prone to storm damage due to its flexible branches and can be more easily transplanted using balled and burlapped or container stock. Limber pine's resilience and unique beauty make it a great choice for a variety of landscapes.
