"Coulter pine is a native evergreen conifer that lives up to 100 years of age. It attains a height of 30 to 83 feet (9-25 m) and a d.b.h. of 12 to 31 inches (30-80 cm). The bark is thick and roughly furrowed at maturity. The crown is pyramidal and may be dense or open, depending upon the site. Needles occur in groups of three and are 6 to 12 inches (15-30 cm) long]. The massive, spiny cones are 9 to 15 inches (24-40 cm) long, occurring in whorls of four. Young trees first bear cones on the trunk. As trees mature, cones are also borne on strong branches.
Females of the southern race of white-headed woodpeckers forage for insects almost exclusively on lower main trunks of Coulter pine, while male white-headed woodpeckers extensively use the cones. The seeds are also a dependable year-round food source for western gray squirrels.. Black-tailed deer rarely browse even young trees."
About Jonsteen's Seedlings
All of our trees are seed-grown at our nursery on California's Redwood Coast, which is inspected monthly and licensed by the California Department of Agriculture. Trees can provide a natural barrier against high winds, temperatures, noise pollution and soil erosion, all while benefiting local air quality, wildlife and property values — a Jonsteen seedling will only grow in value and beauty!
About Jonsteen's 100% Guarantee
All of our trees are guaranteed to arrive healthy and in good condition. If your tree perishes despite your honest efforts, we will be happy to replace it with a small-sized seedling for just the cost of shipping/handling. You can learn more about our guarantee and tree replacement policy here.
Seedling Size Chart: Small
Due to the dynamic nature of actively growing trees, as well as the tremendous variation between species’ growth rates, we rely on the cubic volume of a seedling’s root mass to determine its “size” (Small / Medium / Large / XL). Within each size there is minor variance — the dimensions provided here represent the category minimum. If exact measurements are essential, please contact us about current stock.
I can't say enough about the quality of the trees and care of packaging they take to make sure your trees arrive in perfect condition. Then also they ship your order out quickly to you on top of that. I live in Oklahoma and have placed multiple orders and all of my trees have not only lived but thrived.
