Pine trees
Pines are among the most well-known coniferous trees in the world. They thrive in temperate mountainous regions, but
can also survive in tropical spots in the northern hemisphere.
Among the most popular types of Pine trees are:
·Scotch Pine: Commonly found in North America where it is commercially grown as a Christmas tree, the
Scotch Pine is known for its beautiful bluish-green needles and full shape.
·Ponderosa Pine: Popular among landscapers, the large Ponderosa can grow up to 80 feet tall. Its pyramidal
shape and long needles make it an excellent choice for a windbreaker on large properties.
·Bristlecone Pine: Known for its long life, the Bristlecone is among the shortest types of Pine trees. On average
it grows to about 20 feet. Its short stature makes it an outstanding addition to a rock garden.
