Provenance & quality

A multi-site trial was established at three nursery sites in Scotland in 2007 using seed collected from 21 native Caledonian pinewood provenances. Each nursery contained 8 seedlings from each of 10 families per provenance (total 1,680 trees per nursery).
Growth (height and stem diameter), tree form (canopy width, needle length, number of buds), and phenology (budburst timing and growth cessation) were measured from 2007 to 2011, although not all traits were recorded in every year.
