Pinus radiata, Don.*(P. insignis, Dougl.)

Pinus radiata, Don.^(P. insignis*, Dougl.)

California. A splendid pine, fully 100 feet high, with a straight stem 2 to 4 feet in diameter. It is of remarkably rapid growth, a seedling, one year old, being strong enough for final transplantation; the wood is tough, and much sought for boat-building and various utensils.
