Pinyon Stone Pine

The Pinyon Stone Pine has been a staple food source for people living in the North American Southwest for thousands of years. In past years the Pinyon Pines of the Great Basin create thousands of pounds of incredibly delicious high quality pine nuts that are highly valued to this day. Slow growing and well adapted to the extreme conditions of the Southwest, the Pinyon Pine is a great nut crop for the xeriscape or wild garden. All it needs is well draining soil, being hardy all the way down to USDA Zone 4! Be sure not to overwater after trees are established as the garden hose can bring about their demise. Likely not adaptable to areas with warm season rain, but worth a try if you have very good drainage. A great tree for the west.
