Swiss Pine is of great value for research into hybridisation to develop rust resistance in these species.

Many Swiss Pines also grow around the lake.

The Swiss Pine (Pinus cembra) is also used to a very small extent.

The Swiss Pine is found scattered at intervals throughout the Alps but is not common.

Per the Charlestown Township website, Swiss Pines is closed for the foreseeable future.

It differs in having slightly larger cones, and needles with three resin canals instead of two in Swiss Pine.

Swiss Pine (Pinus cembra)

Swiss Pines (19 acres) is an arboretum and Japanese garden located on Charlestown Road, Malvern, Pennsylvania.

Siberian Pine is treated as a variety or subspecies of the very similar Swiss Pine ('Pinus cembra') by some botanists.

The Swiss Pine is a popular ornamental tree in parks and large gardens, giving steady though not fast growth on a wide range of sites where the climate is cold.

At present Swiss Pines displays a Japanese tea house and garden, a stone garden, statuary, streams, lake, stone lanterns, and bridges set among naturalistic plantings.

The larvae feed on Scots Pine, Swiss Pine, Siberian Pine and Norway Spruce.

White Pine, Swiss Pine, Balsam Fir, Northern Oak, and White Spruce are also found in the park.

Characteristic species are the Swiss Pine (Pinus Cembra) and the Norway Spruce (Picea abies) on the north and south side respectively.

Like other European and Asian white pines, Swiss Pine is very resistant to White Pine Blister Rust (Cronartium ribicola).

The most widespread tree is the Norway Spruce, followed by the Scots Pine, Swiss Pine, European Larch, and Mountain Pine.

Some European and Asian white pines (e.g. Macedonian Pine, Swiss Pine, Blue Pine) are mostly resistant to the disease, having co-evolved with the pathogen.

In central and southern Europe, it occurs with numerous additional species, including European Black Pine, Mountain Pine, Macedonian Pine, and Swiss Pine.

Dense spruce forests cover the slopes up to the subalpine zone before being succeeded by scattered stands of spruce, larch and Swiss Pine (Swiss Pine-Larch Forest).

Among the flora of the Alps, especially Swiss Pines grow along the tree line; above subshrub, mainly alpenrose but also the endemic saxifraga rudolphiana, up to nival level at about 2,800 m (9,200 ft).

Mr. Hirsch, with Alfonso Lopez, both former marketing men at Carter Products, got their manufacturing careers started when in 1974 they bought Swiss Pine Importing, which made the country's first bubble bath (or so they now claim).

The Mountain Pine, a protected species in Romania, can be found on all the steep slopes of the Retezat mountains, while the Swiss Pine (Pinus cembra) has a wider distribution then in any other Romanian massif.

The area is dominated by Swiss Pine, Mountain Pine and Spruce and it is also home to several species of beetle that were thought to have become extinct or lost; the so-called ancient forest relict species (Urwaldreliktarten).

Research is under way, locating and breeding from the occasional naturally resistant Limber Pines, and by studying the resistance mechanisms of the European and Asian white pines (e.g. Swiss Pine, Macedonian Pine), which are strongly resistant to the disease.

Surplus seed is always stored for later use and it is this species that is responsible for the sowing of new trees of their favoured pines, including the re-establishment of the Swiss Pine (Pinus cembra) over large areas in the Alps of central Europe formerly cleared by man.

They are mixed with spruces, Swiss stone pines, and more rarely silver firs.

The arboretum contains many kinds of native salt-tolerant trees and shrubs, including a good specimen of Swiss Stone Pine (Pinus cembra).

Even the insanely hardy Alpine flowers gave up trying to grow here; the Arolla pines had given up a thousand feet earlier.

The Kurhaus is a comfortable four-story hotel nestled in groves of Arolla pines, rhododendron and myrtle.

Arolla pines dot the foothills of the Alps, the trees' cone- - 112 laden branches curving upward like arms of a candelabrum.
