The Swiss pine is a member of the white pine group, Pinus subgenus Strobus, and like all members of that group, the leaves ('needles') are in fascicles (bundles) of five, with a deciduous sheath. The mature size is typically between 25 metres (82 ft) and 35 metres (115 ft) in height, and the trunk diameter can be up to 1.5 metres (4.9 ft).

Swiss Pines was established by Arnold Bartschi (1903-1996), who was a native of Switzerland who was, by the mid-1930s, owner of the J. Edwards Shoe Company. In 1957, he purchased the 200 acres (81 ha) of the former Llewellyn estate; during the next thirty years, he developed the Swiss Pines site. It became a nonprofit foundation in 1960.
