The Canarian pine is renowned for its straight & perpendicular growth. This young pine said 'Hold my beer'.
Pinus canariensis / Canarian Pine is an endemic species to the outer Canary Islands: Gran Canaria, Tenerife, El Hierro and La Palma islands.
(These tress are recovering from previous forest fires.)
It is renowned for having a straight, thick trunk that can reach heights of over 40 meters, and exceptionally over 60 meters.
It is also is one of the most fire-resistant conifers in the world, due to several beneficial adaptations. In particular, Pinus canariensis is one of the few pine species that can epicormically resprout after losing its needles in a fire.
This little corner of the world always catches my eye when I drive to the mountains. It is more or less a north-east facing valley, and therefore receives little direct sunlight, which has creates a cooler micro climate, compared to any south facing valley or terrain.

Pines are coniferous trees in the genus Pinus, in the family Pinaceae.Pines are mostly monoecious, having the male and female cones on the same tree, though a few species are sub-dioecious with individuals predominantly, but not wholly, single-sex. The male cones are small, typically 1-5 cm long, and only present for a short period (usually in spring, though autumn in a few pines), falling as soon as they have shed their pollen. The female cones take 1.5-3 years (depending on species) to mature after pollination, with actual fertilization delayed one year.
