Cones were extensively 
distributed by the Horticul- 
tural Society in 1839. The 
timber is said to be valuable, 
but to resist the plane. Mr. 
Lambert sent seeds to Drop- 
more, where there are three 
plants raised from them; one 
of which was, in 1837, 6 ft. 
high, and had stood out six 
years without any protection ; 
and two others 12 ft. and 
14 ft. high, which are covered 
every winter in the same 
manner as P. longifolia, and 
which have been more in- 
jured than those which were 
left without protection. 1893. P. leiophylla.
