State Trees Series: Nevada, Single-Leaf Pinyon

Nevada has two official state trees: the single-leaf pinyon pine (Pinus monophylla) and the Great Basin bristlecone pine (Pinus longaeva), both designated in 1953. The single-leaf pinyon pine is known for its nutritious pine nuts, which have been an important food source for Native Americans and wildlife. It thrives in Nevada's dry, mountainous regions and plays a key role in the state's ecosystem. Together, these two trees represent Nevada's resilience, history, and natural beauty. The State Trees collection is a unique way to show your state pride! Choose your state, or pick your favorite tree from the collection and watch it come to life. This would make a great gift for a fellow out-of-state puzzle-lover. Go on an 'adventure across the country' and collect them all!
