It is also known as the Italian stone pine, umbrella pine, and parasol pine. A possible native to the Mediterranean region, Southern Europe, Palestinian Territories, Lebanon, and Syria. The species was introduced into North Africa millennia ago, such a long time that it is indistinguishable from being a native anywhere specific can be said. Used since prehistoric times for an edible snack. It is grown in and around California since 1956. It can grow very tall, all the way to 80 feet but is usually seen around 60 feet tall. The beautiful umbrella canopy sets it apart from other pines. The very thick bark is layered like plates with a red-brown color to it. It is drought tolerant and loves the full sun.
