UK-grown by a DEFRA-registered supplier, it thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, making it ideal for coastal and drought-tolerant gardens. Reaching heights of 15-25 meters over decades, it offers both ornamental beauty and a long-term food source, perfect for sophisticated gardeners seeking a unique, low-maintenance statement tree. ## Description The Stone Pine - Pinus pinea, also known as the Umbrella Pine or Italian Stone Pine, is a majestic evergreen tree that evokes images of Mediterranean landscapes. This distinctive pine grows slowly to reach heights of 15-25 metres, developing its characteristic umbrella-like canopy as it matures. The bark is thick and deeply fissured, taking on a rich reddish-brown colour that adds to the tree's ornamental value. Its needles are long, about 10-20 cm, and grow in pairs, creating a dense, dark green crown that provides excellent shade.One of the Stone Pine's most notable features is its large, oval cones, which can take up to three years to mature. These cones contain edible pine nuts, prized in Mediterranean cuisine. The tree doesn't begin producing cones until it's about 20 years old, making it a long-term investment for those interested in harvesting the nuts. In its native range, the Stone Pine is often cultivated in orchards for nut production.The Stone Pine is well-adapted to coastal conditions, tolerating salt spray and strong winds, making it an excellent choice for seaside gardens. It's also notably drought-tolerant once established, thriving in hot, dry summers. In the UK, it's best suited to milder areas, particularly in the south, where it can make a striking specimen tree in large gardens or parks.Plant your Stone Pine in full sun and well-drained soil. It prefers sandy or gravelly soils and doesn't tolerate waterlogged conditions. Once established, it's very drought-tolerant and requires little watering. Pruning is generally unnecessary except to remove dead or damaged branches. Be aware that this tree needs plenty of space to develop its full, characteristic shape. In colder areas of the UK, it may benefit from some protection from harsh winter winds, especially when young.Ultimate heightHigher than 12 metresTime to ultimate heightmore than 50 yearsUltimate spreadWider than 8 metresð Review: Is the brown normal? - Arrived incredibly dry and looking brown in places, going to repot soon but allowing it to absorb some rain has made it look a bit better. ## Features - Stone Pine - Pinus pinea is a striking evergreen tree with a distinctive umbrella-shaped crown, perfect for Mediterranean-style gardens - Known for its edible pine nuts, this tree adds both ornamental value and a potential food source to your outdoor space - Thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, making it ideal for coastal areas and drought-tolerant gardens - Slow-growing and long-lived, the Stone Pine can reach heights of 15-25m, creating a magnificent focal point in larger gardens - Quality UK grown stock from Yarrow Gardens - DEFRA Registered Supplier ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0C6GTKQJ5 | | Best Sellers Rank | 118,838 in Garden ( See Top 100 in Garden ) 275 in Outdoor Trees | | Brand | Generic | | Brand Name | Generic | | Colour | Green | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 out of 5 stars 1 Review | | Expected Plant Height Unit | 15 Centimetres | | Expected Planting Period | Winter | | Expected blooming period | Spring | | Item Weight | 1 Kilograms | | Item weight | 1 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | Yarrow Gardens | | Material Features | Natural | | Material feature | Natural | | Model Number | ETG6905-1-1-1-1-1 | | Moisture Needs | Moderate Watering | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Pieces | 1 | | Plant or Animal Product Type | Trees | | Product Care Instructions | Regular Watering, Well Drained Soil | | Soil Type | Any well drained soil | | Sunlight Exposure | Full Shade | | Sunlight exposure | Full Shade | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | | expected blooming period | Spring | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Generic - **Colour:** Green - **Expected blooming period:** Spring - **Expected plant height:** 15 Centimetres - **Expected planting period:** Winter - **Item weight:** 1 Kilograms - **Material feature:** Natural - **Product care instructions:** Regular Watering, Well Drained Soil - **Sunlight exposure:** Full Shade - **Unit count:** 1.0 count ## Images ![Stone Pine Sapling - Pinus pinea - 20-40cm Pine Kernel Tree UK Grown - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71-0e4X-l1L.jpg) ![Stone Pine Sapling - Pinus pinea - 20-40cm Pine Kernel Tree UK Grown - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71+tcw09-dL.jpg) ![Stone Pine Sapling - Pinus pinea - 20-40cm Pine Kernel Tree UK Grown - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81aV6Wn0e8L.jpg) ![Stone Pine Sapling - Pinus pinea - 20-40cm Pine Kernel Tree UK Grown - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/811Lw8kgpEL.jpg) ![Stone Pine Sapling - Pinus pinea - 20-40cm Pine Kernel Tree UK Grown - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81wBOyeFySL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Is the brown normal? *by S***A on 14 November 2025* Arrived incredibly dry and looking brown in places, going to repot soon but allowing it to absorb some rain has made it look a bit better. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.es/products/540940553-stone-pine-sapling-pinus-pinea-20-40cm-pine-kernel-tree](https://www.desertcart.es/products/540940553-stone-pine-sapling-pinus-pinea-20-40cm-pine-kernel-tree) --- *Product available on Desertcart Spain* *Store origin: ES* *Last updated: 2026-07-07*
