Bristlecone Pine

The Nevada state tree, the bristlecone pine! 

This majestic tree is among the longest-lived life forms on Earth. The oldest, Pinus longaeva, is more than 4,800 years old making it the oldest known individual of ANY species. This unique tree thrives in places where most other plants cannot grow, in rocky soils with virtually no rainfall. 

This pin measures almost 2" and has 2 posts on the back.
