A dwarf, slow-growing, evergreen conifer, which produces a compact, flattened, globe to dome-shaped bush, reaching about 60cm (2ft) high and across after ten years. It has a neat, densely branching habit. The thicker than ususal, short, stiff needles, are produced in bunches of five at the tips of the stems and are blue-green in colour with silver undersides. They keep their colour throughout the year. Its small size, means it is an excellent choice for a small, city or courtyard garden, where an architectural, or evergreen focal point is needed
