The cones were collected with the permission of NPWS and are accompanied with Certificate of provenance from the Forest Service (FS), thus they can be use in the FS native woodland scheme . For more info on purchasing these Scots pine plants contact us at [email protected] .
The gaelic name for Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L) is Gius but Octac is also mentioned. Both names are rare in Irish place names but common in Scotland. It is believed the Scots pine died out in Ireland around 1500 years ago and in time it was reintroduced from Scotland, thus the reason we now call it Scots pine!
