Appearance
NOT Pinus virginiana
[edit]The pine in this photo is NOT Pinus virginiana. It is in fact Pinus rigida. Besides the appearance, you can confirm just by looking at a comparative range map:
Pinus virginiana - http://www.ncsu.edu/project/dendrology/index/plantae/vascular/seedplants/gymnosperms/conifers/pine/pinus/contortae/virginia/habitat.html
Pinus rigida - http://www.ncsu.edu/project/dendrology/index/plantae/vascular/seedplants/gymnosperms/conifers/pine/pinus/australes/pitch/habitat.html
I will be working on fixing the links on the various pages this photo is shown, and removing it from the Pinus virginiana page, but the owner should correct the links on the photo file as well. Famartin (talk) 17:43, 11 December 2010 (UTC)
