Product Information:
The Hardy and Attractive Scotch Pine
Discover the enduring appeal of the Scotch Pine ( Pinus sylvestris ), also widely known as the Scots Pine. This exceptional evergreen is an excellent choice for tough environments, boasting an attractive, often irregular shape that adds unique character to any landscape. Easily recognized by its distinctive 1 to 1.5-inch needles and beautiful orange-red to brownish bark on mature trees, it provides striking visual interest year-round.

Built for Resilience: Originating from the challenging northern European and Eurasian ranges, the Scotch Pine has naturally developed an impressive tolerance to high altitudes, poor soils, extreme cold temperatures, and low moisture. These inherent characteristics make it a remarkably hardy and adaptable evergreen, ideally suited for the challenging climates found in Wyoming and many areas across the Northwest USA.


Key Landscape & Environmental Benefits:

  • Good Growth Rate: The Scotch Pine exhibits a good growth rate, making it a practical choice for establishing landscape features relatively quickly.
  • Effective Windbreaks: Its robust nature and decent growth habit make it a good choice for windbreaks, offering reliable protection for your property.
  • Popular Christmas Tree: This species is also widely popular in the US for Christmas tree production due to its classic conical shape and sturdy branches, holding ornaments beautifully.
  • Low Maintenance: Requiring full sun, the Scotch Pine is a relatively low-maintenance tree once established, thriving in conditions where other trees might struggle.

Choose the Scotch Pine for a resilient, attractive, and adaptable evergreen that will add unique beauty and practical benefits to your property, especially in challenging environments.
