Examples
- Whitebarked pine grows primarily at high elevations and often takes the shape of a stunted or sprawling tree in windswept or icy areas.
- Its shallow root system means whitebarked pine struggles with low-moderate heat.
- Grown ornamentally as far south as Northern New York state in very chilly rural districts and sites along frost-rimed peaks within larger wind flows is whitebarked pine.
- Seedling success requires extensive after-care until windfalls help nourish ground renewal following centuries to restart mountain renewals across much desolation among ghost and active dead volcano places also colonizing broken topos left until older great forces including black moss grass along such remains usually favor just pure whitebarked pine on some islanded peaks as nearly all new tree growth.
- It is surprising to observe well-preserved whitebarked pine growth along cracked sheer stone peaks as steep massive stone faces that do not yet have wide standing hard bases for most old roots.
