The lovely Pinus sylvestris is a huge evergreen tree that reaches a mature height of 15-20 metres. Mature trees can reach up to 35 metres and have a lifespan of up to 700 years.

With its towering trunk and fluffy crown, the Scots pine is the only native pine found in the United Kingdom. The bark is a scaly orange-brown colour that turns into plates and cracks with age, giving the rugged feature an appealing appearance. The needles are in pairs and have a blue-green colour, especially when they are young.

Although it thrives in most soil types, scots pine prefers well-drained soils; it can withstand heat and is frost-hardy, making it a good choice for urban settings.

Perfect for being underplanted with shrubs or perennials because it tolerates neighbouring plants and only throws light shadows.
