Title

7. Pinus radiata (Monterey pine).

Description

The Pinus radiata in the Pine Triangle are at least 85 years old. Native to small areas on the central coast of California and Mexico, these conifers proved to perform well under Victorian conditions because they were fast-growing, tolerant of the soil conditions and produced timber useful for construction, pulp for paper and for chipboard production.
