About Scotch Pine
Occurring in Northern Europe, Western Asia, and Northeastern Siberia, Scotch Pine (Pinus sylvestris) is the most extensively distributed of the world's pines, with a habit that varies from squat and bushy to tall and slender. A popular Christmas Tree species as well as landscape tree, Scotch Pine features showy orange to red-tinged bark, sage-green to bluish foliage, and 2 inch-long reddish cones.
Also known by the common names Scots Pine, Scotch Fir, Northern Pine, and Deal Wood, this tree features a straight, well-branched pyramidal form in its youth, and takes on an irregular, open, and picturesque silhouette with sparse, drooping branches in age. Scotch Pines can grow up to 150 feet tall, but are usually closer to 100 feet. It is a highly wind-resistant species that can grow virtually anywhere.
