I don't mean to criticise, after all, this series is easily my favourite from all the Nottingham science channels - it's just that telling us about the history is all really interesting but I'm quite interested to know about the tree itself - how could the Scots Pine be told apart from other pine trees, what makes it unique? I would gladly watch another 5 minutes of footage to learn more about the trees themselves as well as the history. Still, this isn't a rant - keep up the good work :)
@butteredcrumpet Scots pine has it's needes in pairs (as opposed to groups of 3 or 5) and they are a slightly bluish dark green. On older trees the bark is quite orange higher up and more grey lower down. The female cones start off as pinkish-red flowers which grow and turn green during their first summer. The following spring they turn brown and open in warm weather. Scots pine is my favourite tree and I included it in one of my own videos. At some point I plan to make a more in depth video.
Thank you, I really enjoyed this series. I feel more confident on identifying some of them on my walks which has always been a problem. I've never really found books much use but this series is great. Many thanks
The forests in Ukraine, especially around Kyiv consist mostly of huge trees (and I mean it) of Scots pines. The are many other species of trees, mostly English oaks in our woods, but Scots pines dominate.
I remember seeing this on pine trees as a child growing up..i once placed my hands on this pine sap coming out the pine tree and they got heal from something that was wrong with the skin on my hands.
Recent research shows probably native Scots pine surviving in small numbers near Kielder, Northumberland (NE England), and near the Burren, SW Ireland, so it's no longer true to say that Scotland is the only part of the British Isles where the species is "native".
@Hellothere212121 We don't have much of what you'd call 'old growth' forest here, we have more commercial timber plantations and younger forests mainly because of our higher population density. We have some large 100+ feet tall oaks, ashes, scots pines and black poplars, but our largest trees are douglas firs which were introduced within the last few hundred years. I'd love to visit Canada one day!
It's weird seeing the number of different trees in the UK, I always picture lot's of fields and things, but trees never consider trees. Keep up the great work, hopefully there are more trees to come! Oh, and a quick question for anyone who knows the answer: I'm from Canada, so I'm used to seeing lot's of big Birches and Pines and what-not out in the forest. Are trees in the UK generally as large as in North America, or do they tend to be smaller?
I think your supposed to put the gum onto the wound - I heared of a guy that walked bare foot around India and his soles got very dry and his heels became infected - some villagers took him in and dressed his feet with pine gum... maybe this is something similar? More pictures of the tree please, thanks for sharing.
@Hellothere212121 I'm no expert on trees but I believe oak and horse chest nuts trees are our largest. both trees can grow rather high and have rather large trunks.
@mrteemumilto The most lush and thriving ecosystems are a violent scrabble to obtain as much of a limited amount of resources as possible. The only way you get a vibrant, varied ecosystem without intense competition is if you have human intervention to provide an overwhelming abundance of resources. In other words, and unnatural cultivated system.
Interesting that he says that English are blamed for deforestation. I (as a Scot) was brought up to blame James IV for his navy and other wood consuming projects. x42

That's a Pinus Nigra or Austrian Black Pine. Scots Pine has an Orange Tinge to its Upper bark that is unique.
This is my favorite show about trees on youtube.

This has to be my favourite series of the entire group of PV channels. O:
I demand moar!
I'm not a big fan of trees but the history is amazing.
keep making the tree videos i love them!!!!!

I will be getting one or more of these trees for my future woodland in New England.

TREEEEEEEEEES! Love these videos.

More trees please... I'm learn-ding!
I have been trying to figure out what kind of pines we have. I thought they might have been red pine but I’m beginning to think Scots is the winner
I wish you showed more of the tree and not just the close up of the trunk.
I love the Scots Pine!
What is the sound after he said resin???
Scots pine or tall (pronounced with a fast a, not like the English tall) as it's known here in Sweden is the tree that really reminds me of home.

I'm a lumberjack and I'm okay.
Couldn't resist.
doesnt gum come from the chicle tree anyway

Have you watched all our tree videos... this is the 14th so far!!!
I'm currently having a bit of a throat infection. I could need some of that resin, I think.
This doesn't look like a Scots pine to me...
derkuis097 It is a Scots Pine.
This is not useful if you want to ID a Scots Pine. I found the information interesting, but maybe "The History of the Scot's Pine".
Are you related to bear grylls?
wonder why this 2 year old video is popping on to my feed. but GREATTT
Nice video
What is that at 2:06?
@nottinghamscience yes, more please :D
@Wranid
This is the only show about trees on youtube. lol
How very interesting........
Im working on it!

@nottinghamscience Yes.
HEY! You know EU Trade Law! It's a Scots-style Pine!
@Doomside Along with norway spruce ("gran", long a this time).
Awsume !

"...once the English colonised Scotland"? Eh?
Mmmm... yummy! LOL
Why am I watching a video about trees.
"shouldnt be growing down here" you sir disgust me i feel a tree can grow anywhere it wants to grow lol
@mrteemumilto If that's true they do an exceedingly bad job at it.
The english did not 'colonise' Scotland... go wash your mouth out and check your history
