Pinus Densiflora Var. Funebris
Black pine, scientifically known as Pinus densiflora var. funebris, is a striking evergreen tree native to eastern Asia. Its dark, almost black bark and dense, needle-like foliage give it a somber and elegant appearance. Often found in mountainous regions, this species thrives in well-drained soils and cooler climates. The black pine is valued for its ornamental beauty and ecological importance in forest ecosystems. Its unique characteristics make it a fascinating subject for both botanists and nature enthusiasts.
