Ornamental Trees
A tall, narrow, fast-growing evergreen tree with an airy, delicate appearance due to its pendulous, needle-like branches (which are actually modified stems).
This tree is valued for its windbreak properties and its ability to grow quickly in poor or sandy soil, often in coastal areas. Its fine, drooping foliage makes a soft, whispering sound in the wind. It produces small, woody cones and is widely planted in many tropical regions.
