Hi @antelion
Where is this pine from?
Hello AndyK,
Tree A i have no information at all, tree B was grown in CE Europe.
Thanks
I’m going to take a beginners shot at it (kind of a test) and say that A.is a Pinus contorta (Shore pine) and B. is a Pinus Thunbergii (Japanese Black Pine). I’m hoping one of the more advanced members will correct me if I am incorrect, thanks folks
I think they could both be Pinus sylvestres - Scots pine.
I agree with @rafi. They both look like Pinus sylvestris. Tree A perhaps not 100%, the foliage looks very dense and not so sparingly like at tree B but i would say Pinus Sylvestris anyway for both of them.
Hi @antelion
I’m going with @rafi and @SkeiL
The candels look like Sylvestres. Short needle single flush in Mirai speak
Dear all,
thank you very much for your time and expertise. Regarding tree A one question though. There are some very long needles present (please see picture for detail). Would this still fit the short needle pine?
Tear a needle apart with your fingers, sylvestris will reveal a pale coloured fibrous structure
