Pinus Contorta 'Chief Joseph'. The holy grail of my conifer want list...turns school bus yellow in winter...the colder the better. Haven't found a source for this one yet north of the 49th parallel. The search continues.
*have found Pinus Sylvestris Gold Coin which would be a worthy substitute

Yeah, I would like to have a Chief Joseph as well.
My Pinus Sylvestris 'Wolting's Gold' looks a little more bright golden than your 'Gold Coin' in winter. May be it's just a difference in the time when the pictures are taken. Is the picture you showed taken in mid-winter or early spring?
Hi there GarCan...thanks for the comment. Actually the Gold Coin is a borrowed picture. What I meant is that I have found a source in Canada for this tree if I cannot find the Chief Joseph. BTW, I was poking around your website...very nice!
Hi Jeremy,
Thanks.
Good luck with your hunt for Chief Joseph. If I came across it first, I will let you know.
Great! Likewise.
Hi: Thanks for your pictures. Gorgeous. Could you advise what is that tree with red leaves or flowers behind Chief Joseph?
Thanks.
Sonja
