Can anyone identify this pine?

[Kipper10]

Can anyone tell me what this is please? I have been told it could be a Scott’s pine or a Mugo pine.

It is a 2 needle species so could well be either Scots or Mugho.
Just from the growth habit I'd guess mugho but I have also seen Scots with similar look. Not sure if there are any defining needle or bud differences between the 2 species.
I also don't think it matters in terms of pruning or care. Both seem to respond in similar ways.

Thank you for your reply. It does have very bendy branches I don’t know if that makes any difference?

dwarf scots pine - one of the dwarf varieties. The pine needle is sort of flat with a blue hue. So unlikely a mugo.

Thank you for your reply, I didn’t know there were dwarf varieties.

Where are you at? Please add your location and USDA zone to your profile. Didn't the seller know what it is?

I am located in UK England. It was bought at a sale and no information was given.
