Pinus edulis, Two Needle Pinyon

Description

Pinyon pine (or Colorado Pine) is a short conifer usually reaching less than 45 feet at the most, with two, dark green, one inch needles per fascicle. It co-dominates (is one of the dominant species along with juniper) the pinyon-juniper woodland plant community. Pinyon pine cones are about two inches long and contain edible seeds. Pinyon pine is native to eastern California (rare in California) and needs no water after it is established. Pinyon pine is beautiful for small dry gardens. Pinyon pine prefers full sun.
