The Monterey Pine is dark green, long needled, very fragrant trees that start from seeds imported from New Zealand. The Monterey variety is native to California, but the New Zealand variety grows straighter and has a darker color. Seeds are planted in containers and grown in our nursery for six to seven months. When the plant becomes eighteen inches tall, it is planted in rows of five feet apart in the growing field where you select your tree. The top of the plant is cut monthly so new branches will grow evenly. Pruning once a month, irrigation, and pest control are done regularly to make your tree grow strong and beautiful. By the time it's four years old, your Monterey Pine tree is ready for your seasonal enjoyment. Your tree needs a water containing tree stand. These high quality stands can be purchased at any Peltzer Pines. The stands hold plenty of water. We recommend making a thin re-cut in the bottom of the tree to open the pores of the trunk so the tree can absorb water. If your tree is delivered they will do this for you. Plain tap water is most suitable. Check the water frequently.
