flowers on a pine tree

Post by George Nesfield »

Hi All,
The male flowers on the pine tree are really full of pollen and will pollenate the female flowers wich are to small to see on this photo at the moment, they are on the tips of the branches and they will eventually turn into beatifull large cones.
George.

Hi,
The male flowers are finished now, they have spread their pollen and pollenated the female cones which will now form and they will grow next year to full size cones.
