Anyone have success growing these below Alexandria?
I saw a dwarf version that I was considering for my asian garden landscaping, but everything I read suggests it even struggles in zone 8 with our heat.
I have a few Thunderhead Japanese Black Pines that are a few years old and are thriving. Those are rated for zone 9 though.

White pines are beautiful. If you want to try one, maybe don’t fork out alot of money on one in case it fails. (Pines are expensive in the nurseries).
I would plant it this time of year. I would plant it where it would get some afternoon shade in the summer. I would plant it in a well-draining area, however I would not let it dry out, especially in the heat.
Let us know if you’re successful. I’m in S. LA too and might just have to try one too.
