Coulter Pines are almost impossible to find at any nursery, they are native to the lower portions of the San Bernardino and San Gabriel (local) mountains. Very nice looking tree at all ages. They produce large heavy cones that are a tan-yellow color with edible seeds. They have needles that are up to 14″ long for adult trees and have a deep green to greenish-blue color. Adult trees have long, sometimes swooping, robust branches. They do well in the high desert, just add water. They are slower growing than most of the common nursery pines, but they are the closest thing we have to a native pine tree here in the high desert. They exhibit a very nice classic pine tree shape with a broad spread.
