A small tree. Mexico, on the Ocotillo, one specimen only being found, of small size. Height?. Introduced in 1839 by cones sent home by Hartweg, from which plants have been raised. Differs from P. 'RusseWidna in the longer leaves, and shorter and stouter cones, the ends of the scales of which are strongly hooked backwards. They are l4 or 15 inches long, very robust, and resemble those of the Pinaster. The cones are about 6 in. long, and 3 in. broad at the base ; and the scales are hooked backwards like those of P. Coulteri, and very hard. Tlie small size of the tree, if that should be its general habit, and the great length of its leaves, would seem to render this a very remarkable species. Young plants have been raised, but whether they will prove hardy is Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Loudon, J.
