I went on a the weather sucks and I'm bored net search. After a day of looking at everything the the search Mugo Pine issued I found some interesting things I am ashamed to admit. I did not know that there were about fifteen different cultivars of Mugo Pine, a lot of them seem to be European issues. Follows is the list. If you know of otheres please let me know, I have been meaning to compile this for some time. Mugo cultivars: Benjimin, Gnome, Humpy, Mops, Mughus, Ophir, Turra, Alpanzwerg, Montana, Laurin, Carstine Wintergold, Tyrolian, Typ Tirol, Varella, Valley Cushion, I think I remember running into a Tom Thumb dwarf. Of course there is the Unchinata considered by some to be a separate species, and the Pumilio which is the most often encountered cultivar in America, and natural growing, and most often collected in Europe. Any others you can think of; I would like to hear about. I of course have not fooled around with all of these listed, from the photos I have seen many of them do not look so different from each other.
Best blizzard of the year tabarnack!
