Common name:Aleppo Pine
Botanical name:Pinus halepensis

Aleppo Pine (Pinus halepensis) is a Mediterranean native tree with an upright growth habit, reaching up to 60’ tall and 40’ wide. This tree is often planted in California parks and gardens because of its drought tolerance and its natural vertical shape. This tree is too large for small gardens, but it would be appropriate in medium-to-large gardens that have the space to support it. Its natural, upright growth habit makes it very low maintenance, requiring almost no shaping or pruning when it is young. Once it has been in place for a few years, the pruning should be left to a licensed arborist to keep the tree looking and performing at its best. This tree should be planted at least 10 feet away from any hardscape areas, 30 feet from structures such as houses and buildings, and not near any powerlines. Shrubs and perennials should be planted about five feet away from this tree. It should be irrigated for about 45 minutes once a week when using most in-line drip irrigation systems. It is not recommended for fire-prone areas. Visit the Orange County Fire Authority for more information.
