#Scotspine
One Kentucky Scots pine, four pairs of hands: Tommy McCurry grew it, Akio Kondo set its bones, Peter Tea and I refined it, and now it lives with Russ at Twisted Nature Bonsai in Louisville.

How well do you know the #Scotspine? 🌲One of the defining trees of Scotland’s #Caledonianforest, Scots pine supports a rich variety of life.

But there’s more to this iconic tree than meets the eye. Watch to see a Scots pine in three different ways. 🌲

This #ScotsPine by Loch Shieldaig, Wester Ross is a cracker! And thick. But girth not a reliable indicator of age, especially in the uplands. Look for decay holes, trunk damage, bark loss, dead wood in crown & epiphytes. Moss & lichen on this trunk demo how wet west Scotland is! #ThickTrunkTuesday

From collection, to first styling.. photos taken 4 years apart. The trunk is now huge, and a heavy feeding regime has helped this. Next spring it’ll get is first ceramic home.

Falls of Foyers (Eas na Smùide) on the rugged banks of Loch Ness. They call it the 'Smoking Falls,' and you can feel the mist rising from the gorge below. Love the natural framing of the ancient Scots Pine here. 🌲

Scots pine is an evergreen conifer native to northern Europe. Mature trees grow to 35m and can live for up to 700 years. My new drawing is now available... theweeowlart.etsy.com/listing/1697...

Pleased Repost: Does anyone know where I can get bare root saplings of native Irish trees? or am I looking at the wrong time of year? If November is a better time does anyone have a recommendation on where I might get about 1200 in the Mayo area? Ideally for free 😜

🌲I’d like to start by sharing my pencil illustration of Scots Pine. This tree has always had a special place in my heart.💚

👀Spot the difference. The Scots pine on the left is from the Cairngorms (i.e. the cooler, drier, east of Scotland). The one on the right is from Torridon (i.e. the wetter, west of Scotland). What a difference water makes!

It's hard to beat an old #ScotsPine (IOHO). This one in the #Cairngorms was recorded as 5.3m in diameter - a monster for a Scots pine (though girth is not always the best indicator of age). @cairngormsnews.bsky.social‬ @cairngormsconnect.bsky.social‬
