Trees; Shrubs; Forests and forestry. LXXVir. CONI FERiE : PI NUS. 995. 18S2* P. canari^nsis. Seeds Ain. long, and ^ in. broad, flat, pointed at both extremities ; with the wing If in. long, and -r? >"• broad at the widest part; colour a whitish brown. Cotyledons, ?. The tree throws out abundance of shoots and tufts of leaves from the dormant buds in the trunk and larger branches, more especially at places where any branches have been cut off. A large tree. Teneriffe and Grand Canary, at 5000 ft. to 7000 ft. of elevation. Height 60ft. to 70ft. Introduced ? 1759, and requiring , protection in British Gardens. This species, P. longifolia, and P. leiophylla bear a close general resemblance, and are all rather tender; but, when the leaves and buds are examined closely, their specific difference becomes obvious. They are all readily propagated by cuttings of the young shoots which are thrown out by the trunks, planted in sand, and covered with a hand-glass, but without bottom heat. They all require protection, even in our mildest winters, and should be placed in a conservatory devoted entirely to half-hardy Ahietina;. Lambert states that this species differs from P. longifolia chiefly, in the 3s 2.
