An aquatic Pine! This unusual Pine with its stout red-brown scaly trunk (to 70') and somewhat contorted/crooked branches has 6-8" needles in bundles of 3 and grows in areas of the SE United States with wet peat or sand, even standing water! Its pretty cones are nearly round, prickly and most interestingly they require fire to open. S/M-W
