The Pinus radiata, commonly known as insignis pine or montrey pine, comes from the west coast of the United States, that is, from California. Its presence in the Basque Country dates from mid XIXth century and it adapted successfully to the climate and soil of the country. It even achieved a better growth in less time than that of those in the area of origin.
