Pinus eldarica is prized for its upright symmetrical growth habit that never changes during its life.
It is a popular tree in Arizona, California, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas, and Utah and makes an amazing specimen tree or windbreak.
Reaching about 30-40 feet tall and 25-30 foot spread, its canopy is handsome from a distance. It thrives in full sun, most well-drained soils and with little supplemental water once established.
One of its key benefits is that its not susceptible to Verticillium wilt or other pests.
