Also called Weymouth Pine, this large, perennial evergreen grows to 120 feet tall. The crown is full and spreading, and the trunk is generally branchless for over half its height. The trunk bark on young trees is thin, smooth, and gray-green in color, later becoming thick, red-brown to gray-brown with prominent broad ridges and furrows. It grows in full sun to shade, in dry to moist, well-drained soils.
