I have been given what I think is an Allepo pine, which has a rather thick trunk for the size pot its been in. I'm looking for some clarification and information on the species. It is a two needle pine, the needles are very thin.
The tree is in a rubbish state, but I can see a few small possibilities based on what I have seen many Uk and European artists do with limited branching.
What's interesting is the two types of growth. You have very "normal" style buds then odd blue green growth inside the branches.
I'll post the tree, if anyone has any idea's they wanna throw around go ahead, but I do want to keep the tree as so far it's the only pine I have been able to keep from boiling in its own sap over summer.
We get regular spells of plus 45*c and higher with the nights still hovering around the 38*c and higher, its an extremely dry heat as well.
The long top bit has been left alive for a reason, I plan on carving it down to form a large shari.
