Provenance & quality

A multi-site field trial was established at three sites in Scotland in 2012 using five year old Scots pine trees. Each site contains 8 families from each of 21 native Caledonian pinewood provenances. Two of the sites (FE and FS) have four randomised blocks and the other (FW) has three randomised blocks.

Tree height and basal stem diameter were measured at the end of each growing season from 2013 to 2020 for trees growing at two of the field sites (FE and FW) and in 2020 for trees growing at the third (FS).

Phenology assessments were performed in spring at each site from 2015 to 2019 (the survey was not completed in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic).
