English term or phrase: stone pine
Hello, all!
How would you translate the word "stone pine" which is the medium-sized 2-needled pine of southern Europe having a spreading crown and widely cultivated for its sweet seeds that resemble almonds. I was suggested the variant "pohon pinus stone pine", but it looks too complicated for me.
Thank you very much.
