Swiss Pine
Swiss Pine, also known as Swiss Stone Pine or Pinus cembra, is a coniferous tree native to the mountainous regions of the Alps. It typically grows between 20 to 30 meters tall and is known for its distinctive, straight trunk and dense, needle-like leaves. The tree thrives in rocky, well-drained soils and can withstand harsh weather conditions, making it a resilient species.
The wood of Swiss Pine is highly valued for its durability and pleasant aroma. It is often used in furniture making, cabinetry, and interior design, particularly in Swiss chalets and traditional mountain homes. Additionally, the essential oils extracted from its wood are believed to have calming properties, contributing to its popularity in wellness products.
