Discover the enchanting Pacific Ponderosa Pine, a magnificent tree native to regions from the Portland area to Northern California. Known for its tall, straight crowns of lush green needles, this tree is resilient, adaptable and among the tallest in the world. This regal tree can reach around 125′ over time, and advance close to 200′ in great age.
Despite its slow initial growth stage, Pacific Ponderosa Pine gains momentum in its adolescence, growing almost exponentially afterwards. The glossy needles, ranging from yellow-green to dark green, are slightly longer and more lush than those of its relative, the Eastern Ponderosa Pine, and tend to be shed profusely in September.
Admire the tree's distinct bark - red brown, deeply furrowed, forming beautiful patterns of flaky irregular segments with age. The tree also adorns itself with barrel-shaped cones of 3-6 inches in length.
This species thrives in diverse soil types and is excellently adapted to climates with winter wet/summer dry periods. It requires full sunlight and is less shade tolerant.
This delightful tree provides vital sustenance and cover for wild animals, demonstrating its ecological significance. Add to your green space Pacific Ponderosa Pine – a splendid balance of strength, beauty, and environmental contribution.
