I am looking to overhaul the landscaping at my house. I have a 2 story and would like to anchor one corner with a 10 foot (about) pyramidal pine tree. Anyone have any ideas? If not pyramidal, how about conical.
My friend you are in luck...I was looking for the same thing and crazy enough I live over in O'fallon. Anyway as to your question I will be planting Aborvitae Technito "first edition," which will grow to about 8 feet. The second link is essentially the same tree, but only grows to about 6 feet.
You can also go with a green emerald aborvitae...they are cheaper and available everywhere. They are slow growers and are supposed to reach a max of 15 fet, but that is after a long time. You can always just trim to the size you want.
