Pinus sylvestris
Scots Pine
Common Name: Scots PineLatin Name: Pinus sylvestrisSoil: Chalky, Clay, Loamy, Sandy (will tolerate most soil types)Position: Full sunHardiness: HardyEventual height/spread: Up to 25m/8mSpecial features: Pine needles that grow in pairs and hold a blue-green colour all year round.Pinus sylvestris is a native to Scotland and it is therefore the only pine native to Britain; it is a slow-growing evergreen conifer that is widely planted as a parkland tree. The Scots Pine features glaucous blue-green needles that are borne in pairs and curl slightly at their tips. As this conifer slowly grows into a tall tree, its main trunk becomes deeply fissured and holds an unusual orange-red colour. In autumn, further interest is added when little green pine cones appear, and these gradually grow over two years and become brown after several months. Eventually, this tree will become very tall and it will have a long clear stem with the main branches starting from the top third of the tree. This is a great choice for parkland planting or for a large woodland type garden. Make sure that you give this mighty tree the space it needs to thrive and grow.

Most of you will have come across this tree during the festive period as it is grown for use as a Christmas tree, mainly because of its attractive foliage and needles that do not drop readily when the tree dries out. Please be aware that if you are planning on using it as a Christmas tree inside the house.
