To produce pine liqueur, the red pine cones are collected at the end of June, mid-July, while they are still in full sap, before they're woody. The harvest is often labor-intensive, as the pine cones can only be hand-picked when allowed (the trees are often located in natural protection areas, where cone-harvesting is not allowed).
The mugo pine is used in cooking. The cones can be made into a syrup called "pinecone syrup", [15] "pine cone syrup", [16] or mugolio. Buds and young cones are harvested from the wild in the spring and left to dry in the sun over the summer and into autumn. The cones and buds gradually drip syrup, which is then boiled down to a concentrate and ...
It takes 18 years for the pond pine to reach full maturity. [9] The almost round cones are 5–8 cm (2– 3 + 1 ⁄ 4 in) long with small prickles on the scales. Its cones are usually serotinous, requiring fire to open. [6] The pollen cones are cylinder-shaped with a yellow, brownish color, and are up to 1.8 inches long.
The cones are symmetrical ovoid, 4–6 cm (1 + 1 ⁄ 2 – 2 + 1 ⁄ 4 in) long by 2.5 cm (1 in) broad, and purple before maturity, ripening to nut-blue and opening to 4–5 cm (1 + 1 ⁄ 2 –2 in) broad, the scales without a prickle and almost stalkless. [2] The pine grows well in sandy soils and on soils which are too poor for white pine. [5]
Coulter pine (Pinus coulteri), or big-cone pine, is a conifer in the genus Pinus of the family Pinaceae.Coulter pine is an evergreen conifer that lives up to 100 years. [2] It is a native of the coastal mountains of Southern California in the United States and northern Baja California in Mexico, occurring in mediterranean climates, where winter rains are infrequent and summers are dry with ...

Sugar pine is notable for having the longest cones of any conifer, mostly 10–50 cm (4– 19 + 3 ⁄ 4 in) long, [2] [5] exceptionally to 60 cm (23 + 1 ⁄ 2 in) long [citation needed] (although the cones of the Coulter pine are more massive); their unripe weight of 1–2 kilograms (2.2–4.4 lb) makes them perilous projectiles when chewed off ...
