    If I got it right, though I don't have 100 posts, I can post here (and seems I am not blocked) as I had over 40 posts of the time of rule change

    Please help id this pine forest, based on bark only if possible.

    I read especially pinus nigra, cembra, resinosa, syvestris could be found in the Carpathians mountains. I can tell these are not pinus nigra.

    Pinus sylvestris. In Europe, the scaly orange bark is diagnostic for Scots Pine.

    Thankyou. I have what I think is the above in a small pot ready for the paddock. They are grown a lot in country cemetaries here. Lovely trees.
