Planted Fall 2011. This little guy Is a nice soft pale green most of the year and turns into a beacon of bright gold during the winter.
Whitebark pine is common but patchy in occurrence in this area with much variation in the distribution of age-classes (young, middle-aged, and dead and dying comprise most populations) and no (or at least not much in the way of) signs of disease (e.g., blister rust and animal predation of oozing bark). This site lies just north of Pinchot Pass in the the Lake Marjorie basin, Sierra Nevada, Fresno County, California.
The monumental shrine of Our Lady of Ta' Pinu was built between 1920 and 1931. It is also an architectural masterpiece, especially its interior, with its superb sculptures and craftsmanship of designs on Maltese stone. The sanctuary was constructed adjacent to a still existent chapel where the young Karmni Grima is said to have received a message for prayer from Our Lady back in 1883.
Pinus edulis, the state tree of New Mexico, is common to the Taos area. Perhaps most similar to the Mexican Pinus cembroides in having mostly 2 (3) needles per fascicle, the leaves of Pinus edulis are over 1 mm in width. This region that descends in elevation from Taos to Española transitions out of the expanses of sagebrush steppe and is essentially devoid of Bromus tectorum. This site lies along highway 68 just to the southwest of Taos, Taos County, New Mexico, about where the highway and the Rio Grande meet.

A forest of lodgepole pine (pinus contorta), an early succession tree species often found in dense, similarly-aged stands - hence the mock scientific name.
If these date to the 1988 fires, which included a small patch in this area, they would be 35 years old. Professor Google suggests that lodgepole pines of that age will be 20-50 feet (6-15m) tall. These seem to be at the taller end of that range.

Distinguished from the bristlecone pine (Pinus longaeva) by the broadly attenuate (not rounded) base of the pine-cone, each scale of which has no terminal prickle or weak one to only 1 mm, and an amber color to the resin on the pinecone. This pine species epitomizes the many stately conifer tree species of the Sierra Nevada. Along the John Muir Trail and the PCT, this pine tree is common from south of Mount Whitney in the New Army Pass area north to somewhere just north of Mather Pass. It was not observed north of the Le Conte Canyon area. This site sits to the west of New Army Pass.
"Pinus strobus, 2017, [Eastern White Pine], PYE-nus STROE-buss, 60x30 ft Large #Conifer, Black Walnut Sensitive., USDA Hardiness Zone 3, Blue green needles, Bloom Month --, In Garden Bed D2 for 19.8 years
Bought many 2 ft seedings from Coldwater Farms. Have 6 or so along the driveway. White pines grow well in Michigan. The eastern white pine could be the tallest tree in eastern North America (230 ft). Mine are 20 ft. or so after 15 years. There are manys interesting white pine cultivars.
Trimmed bottoms again in 2016.
