| Notes | Number 121 in the EDDC survey. Monterey Pines grow very quickly in the first thirty years and then, when established they slow down and settle into maturity. This tree is younger than you might think, it was planted as recently as 1983. Endangered in its homeland of Monterey in California, Pinus radiata is now the most abundant conifer in the southern hemisphere where it is a commercial timber tree. More at New Zealand Wood | |
