"The term 'Scotch' pine is incorrect and should not be used, as these trees are not a source of that celebrated intoxicant."--The Gymnosperm Database.
With its colour and texture, this pine offers a good solution for screening or foundation type plantings. A more formal shape can be achieved with yearly pruning. This pine is highly tolerant of urban pollution and should thrive in inner city environments.
To improve looks and airflow, these plants would benefit from periodic 'combing' (use your fingers) to remove dead material.
