Description
Fine art photograph of a bristlecone pine tree. Sundown colors on the twisted skeleton of an ancient bristlecone pine tree (Pinus longaeva) in the White Mountains of eastern California.
Bristlecone pines have not only adapted to, but thrive in, shallow, dry dolomitic soils that are high in alkaline and low in phosphorus, which excludes many other plant species.
The bristlecone groves in the White Mountains also endure extreme cold and arid conditions, slowing their growth rate. Even after death, their wood remains extremely tough and dense, weathering like stone rather than rotting away like other species of pine. Bristlecones are among the oldest known individual living organisms. A neighboring bristlecone on this mountain peak is said to be 5,064 years old.
