We hope that its striking intense color shift from summer to winter provides an entertaining viewing as you care for it. Good amounts of growth can be achieved as it can gain about 1-6 inches in a year. It tends to grow in a compact globe shape which makes it a go-to low maintenance option to manage choice for small sized bonsai. Podocarpus nivalis are sometimes referred to as an 'Alpine or Snow Totara' instead of a Plum Pine tree.
