BY M. E GARDNER

Recently I received a letter from
a prominent nurseryman in the
Greensboro area requesting infor
mation about tthe "Marine” pine.
I was not familiar with this spe
cies so I consulted a friend and co
worker, Professor Walter M. Kel
ler. in the School of H>re*try. He
very kindly supplied rather com
plete Information and I am pasting
it along to my readers because I
found it interesting, too.
Somewhere along the Ha#
the nmraeryman has confused
Uie names. What ha referred te
was Warmest pines, rtnos
ptnestra. Instead as "Marine’’
pine. The Maritime pine le
someUmes also referred to as
"charter pine."
The Maritime pine is a native of
the Mediterranean region. It is dis
tinguished tram other species by
thick, deeply fissured, reddish bark
and by long stout leaves, persistent
cones and long, stout, winter buds.
The cones are securely attached
and may remain on the tree for
several years before dropping. ,
The needles are in pairs, stout,
slightly curved and five to six inch
es long. They have sharp points on
the tips of the needles. In appear
ance. the Maritime pine moat close
ly resembles Scotch and Austrian
pines.
The wood of the tree is quite
hard, coarse grained and highly re
sinous. It is tapped for resin just as
the Long leaf and Slash pines are

Georgia and northern Tlorida.
In western Europe this species is
the one on which the naval store's
industry is dependant

The tree is not too hardy and
will not succeed in color regions. It
hi reported not to be adapted to
clay soils. However, no information
is available on how tar inland toe
tree might be planted and still be
expected to thrive and do well.
Within the natural range tor this
species, the tree will grew to a
height of 80 to 138 feat expect whan

such conditions tt is usually much
