With age, the bark takes on a \u201cpuzzle\u201d look in large plates\u2014often one of the species\u2019 finest features. In dry, free-draining conditions, it also holds up very well once it has rooted in. On mature trees, sun-warmed bark is sometimes described as faintly scented (resinous, sometimes \u201cvanilla-like\u201d), depending on the tree and personal perception.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"1423\" data-end=\"1435\">Colours<\/h3>\n<ul data-start=\"1437\" data-end=\"1666\">\n<li data-start=\"1437\" data-end=\"1485\">\n<p data-start=\"1439\" data-end=\"1485\"><strong data-start=\"1439\" data-end=\"1452\">Foliage<\/strong> : green to dark green, evergreen.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1486\" data-end=\"1586\">\n<p data-start=\"1488\" data-end=\"1586\"><strong data-start=\"1488\" data-end=\"1498\">Bark<\/strong> : brown on young trees, then orange \/ cinnamon in plates on mature trees.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1587\" data-end=\"1666\">\n<p data-start=\"1589\" data-end=\"1666\"><strong data-start=\"1589\" data-end=\"1598\">Cones<\/strong> : light brown to brown, often remaining on the tree for several years.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 data-start=\"1668\" data-end=\"1686\">Habit &amp; vigour<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1688\" data-end=\"2007\">Initially conical, then a tree with a strong trunk and a more open crown with age (depending on space, competition, and provenance).

It is one of the most widely distributed pines in that region, which explains its variability (habit, size, behavior). Two major varieties are often distinguished in forestry literature: var. ponderosa (\u201cPacific\u201d type) and var. scopulorum (\u201cRockies\u201d type).<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p class=\"translation-block\">Pinus ponderosa (ponderosa pine \/ \u201cwestern yellow pine\u201d) is a large evergreen pine with a very recognizable style: long needles gathered in tufts, sturdy cones, and above all a mature bark that turns orange to caramel-brown, broken into large plates. It thrives in full sun, in well-drained soil\u2014even poor, stony ground.
