Photo of Korean Pine in the Midwest?

What is anyone's experience with Korean Pine (Pinus koraiensis)? On a visit to Hidden Lake Gardens in Michigan, I saw some beautiful specimens of both the species and 'Glauca', which seems to not get as large. They were doing wonderfully in Southern Michigan, and M. Dirr says in his Manual that they are hardy from Zones (3)4 to 7 and should be used more. I've never seen them for sale at nurseries and garden centers in this area. Has anyone had experience growing this pine in the Midwest?
