    Wow, that is really striking! I love it! What is the spread on it? Is it available to purchase?

    Try Bob Fincham of Coenosium Gardens out of Washington State. He has a lot of Rare stuff as does Dennis Dodge of Bethlehem Nursery out on the East Coast. Both have websites.

    Other places:
    Arrowhead Alpines
    Stanley and Sons Wholesale Nursery (Only American Conifer Society Members may purchase)
    Gee Farms
    Rich's Foxwillow Pines
    Porterhowse Nursery
    others???

    Apparently gets upright and conical with age. Porterhowse has a pic of one with cones, but doesn't state age.

    Our 'Starker's Dwarf' started out prostrate, but as it matures, it is beginning to be more upright. The left hand image is a few years old; the right hand one was taken today.
