Introduction
Pinus uncinata |
We are in the territory of the black pine, which is usually between 1,600 and 2,200 meters. |
The specific name derives from the Latin adjective uncinatus (in the form of a hook) and refers to the flakes on the back of the pineapples. Look at the nail sahpe that they have. |
The black pine is a tree of slow growth and long life, it can get to live more than 600 years. |
As a curiosity, we will say that shepherds used resinous chips, especially old specimens, to enlighten themselves. |
