Pinus torreyana   Torrey Pine Pinaceae

  Pinus torreyana   Pinus torreyana

  Rarest pine in California; exists only on Santa Rosa Island and
in northern San Diego County (Torrey Pines State Park). About 9-10,000 left.

Though it has five needles per pannicle, it's not a white pine (Monterey Pine has
three needles, and Shore Pine has two).

Big fat woody seeds with tiny wings. Cone is on a small stalk. OK with little water,
likes sandy soil.
