Scots Pine (Pinus Sylvestris)
Britain�s only native pine tree is also the most widely spread of all European conifers, found growing in Scandinavia and also in southern Spain. A pioneer species, which can thrive in poor soil, it is a long-lived tree capable of reaching 250-300 years in age. Despite being a tall tree it has a narrow trunk, which in mature trees can be just over 2.5m wide. It is a keystone species in Scotland, proving a home for many plants, insects, birds and animals, such as the rare red squirrel. its naturally resin-rich timber is resistant to decay and widely used in building. Traditionally, its tall, straight, flexible trunks were valued for masts and spars, while the Vikings used its leaves as a valuable source of Vitamin C, drinking pine beers to ward off scurvy.
