Pinus ponderosa predominates in the breaks country and extends into the sagebrush steppe to a small degree. The subspecies scopulorum extends from the very southern Rocky Mountains northward into this part of Montana. Not much suggests Great Plains in eastern Montana given how widespread is the sagebrush steppe and ponderosa pine woodlands.
This particular cultivar was found growing in a garden in France over 100 years ago.

Observaciones: No resulta fácil saber qué poblaciones son naturales; las aragonesas probablemente procedan todas de antiguos cultivos. En las proximidades de masas forestales de repoblación se encuentran, en ocasiones, ejemplares asilvestrados.
Hábitat: Forma bosques puros o mixtos ocupando ambientes de robledal y carrascal.
Preferencia edáfica: Acidófila. Vive sobre suelos silíceos, siendo más frecuente en los rodenos de arenisca.

Twisted branches of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris), typical of older specimens planted in eastern North America.
Pinus aristata is distinguished from the other bristlecone pines to the west by leaves with the abaxial surface with a strong, narrow median groove and scales of the seed cone bearing a terminal slender prickle mostly 6-10 mm long (the other bristlecones lack this long aristate prickle). This site lies along the base of the south shoulder of Sante Fe Baldy, Santa Fe County, New Mexico.
