Hi there all!,

I acquired this pine for free two years ago and put it in my grandparents garden to gain a decent caliber trunk. I am just wondering if anyone knows the species of pine? It was dug by the fella I obtained it from in northern NSW if that is of any assistance. Hopefully I can then begin looking at some styling ideas.

Im gonna say japanese black pine or radiata

not thinking black pine as the needles are a bit thinner

possibly pinus patula (mexican weeping pine)

Pinus Insedit?

Does anyone speak latin?

::EDIT::

I was trying to write Miscellaneous Pine, but I don't speak latin and google translate betrayed me...

How many needles? If it's 2 it could be a red. 3 or 5 could be mexican.

If it was dug from northern nsw my guess would be P. radiata. Or at least what I think of as P. radiata. There is a lot of self sown pines around me that I've never formally identified but are remnants of plantations

Radiata pine for sure.
