Pinus teocote, commonly known as Aztec or Teocote Pine, is a captivating conifer native to Mexico that lends a touch of the exotic to any landscape. Known for its elegant, pyramidal to rounded crown, these evergreen giants can reach heights of 65-100 ft, boasting a majestic straight trunk with lush, horizontally spreading branches. The distinctive slightly drooping foliar units and dark gray-brown bark add to its visual appeal, making it a striking choice for gardens and natural reserves. Found thriving at elevations of 3,200-10,800 ft, Pinus teocote adapts well to thin, sometimes calcareous soils, favoring regions with annual precipitation between 20-120 inches, primarily during summer. Remarkably, this species is frost-tolerant and often coexists with various Quercus species and other pines in diverse woodland settings. Beyond its visual allure, the resin of Pinus teocote is remarkable for producing turpentine, showcasing its economic and ecological significance. Discover the robust beauty and adaptability of the Aztec Pine, a splendid specimen of Mexican flora, for your garden or landscape design today.
