Oriental spruce
Picea orientalis
Oriental spruce (Picea orientalis) is an evergreen conifer from the Pinaceae family, native to northeastern Turkey and the Caucasus region of Georgia. The tree forms a dense, narrow, pyramidal crown with pendulous side branches and short, glossy, dark green needles that lie close to the shoots. In spring, the tree bears conspicuous reddish-purple male cones, which later mature into brown seed cones in the fall. In gardens and parks, the species typically reaches 15-18 meters in height with a width of 4-7 meters after many years of growth, while wild specimens can grow even taller. It is known for its slow but steady growth and is often used as an ornamental tree, windbreak, or specimen plant in large gardens and parks.

Brazilian Blue Cactus
Pilosocereus azureus
Pilosocereus azureus, commonly known as the Brazilian Blue Cactus, is a columnar cactus native to Brazil's rocky caatinga and cerrado scrublands. Its most striking feature is the blue-grey coloration of the stem, caused by a waxy epicuticular coating that shields it from intense sunlight. In habitat it can grow up to 10 meters tall, branching into clusters covered in golden-yellow spines. It produces large white, night-blooming flowers pollinated by bats and moths, typically appearing from spring into summer.

Exceptionally cold-hardy and wind-resistant, it thrives in poor, rocky, well-drained soils at high altitudes. Widely used in rock gardens, alpine landscaping, erosion control, and as a bonsai subject.
Stone Pine
Pinus pinea
Pinus pinea, the stone pine, is a large Mediterranean conifer famous for its broad, umbrella-shaped crown and for the edible pine nuts (pinoli) held in its rounded cones. It has stiff, dark green paired needles and reddish, fissured bark, and can reach 20 to 25 metres over a long, slow life. Its distinctive silhouette is a hallmark of the Italian and Iberian landscape.
Ponderosa Pine
Pinus ponderosa
The Ponderosa Pine is a massive, iconic conifer of the American West. It is easily recognized by its long, dark-green needles that grow in bundles of three and its thick, plate-like bark that develops a beautiful orange-brown hue and a scent reminiscent of vanilla or butterscotch as the tree matures.
Smooth-bark Mexican Pine
Pinus pseudostrobus
The Smooth-bark Mexican Pine (Pinus pseudostrobus) is a large conifer native to the highlands of Mexico and Central America, where it grows in pine-oak forests between 850 and 3,250 meters in altitude. It is distinguished by its smooth, grayish bark in young specimens, which becomes rougher and cracked with age, and by its long, drooping needles grouped in fascicles of five. In its natural habitat, it can exceed 30 meters in height, with a dense, rounded crown. It is a fast-growing species, drought-tolerant once established, and valued both for its timber and its ornamental use in temperate to warm climates.
Matico
Piper aduncum
Piper aduncum, popularly known as matico or spiked pepper, is a perennial shrub or small tree native to Central and South America, common in Brazil, where it grows in secondary forests, forest edges, and riverbanks. It grows rapidly, reaching 2 to 8 meters in height, with aromatic, pungent-tasting leaves and elongated, white to pale-yellow floral spikes that can appear year-round. It is widely valued in traditional Amazonian medicine for its healing, antiseptic, and antimicrobial properties.
Wild Betel
Piper sarmentosum
Wild betel (Piper sarmentosum) is an evergreen perennial plant from the Piperaceae family, native to Southeast Asia.

Alligator Tree
Piptadenia gonoacantha
The Alligator Tree is a native species of the Atlantic Forest, reaching 26 to 65 feet in height. It is easily recognized by its corky trunk featuring longitudinal and transverse ridges that resemble alligator skin—the origin of its common name. The leaves are bipinnate with dozens of pairs of leaflets, forming a wide and sparse canopy. Small white to cream-colored flowers gather in axillary spikes, attracting large numbers of bees during the flowering season. As a fast-growing pioneer species, it is essential for restoring degraded areas and reforestation due to its ability to fix nitrogen in the soil through bacteria associated with its roots.
Dyeball
Pisolithus tinctorius
Pisolithus tinctorius is a fascinating ectomycorrhizal fungus, commonly known as the Dyeball or Dead Man's Foot. It is not a plant, but a fungus that forms a vital symbiotic relationship with the roots of trees such as pines and oaks. Its fruiting body has a globose, earthy appearance, similar to a stone or animal waste, which matures into a mass of dark brown spores. It is highly valued in forestry for its ability to help trees colonize poor, acidic, or mining-degraded soils.
Mastic Tree
Pistacia lentiscus
Evergreen Mediterranean shrub or small tree with leathery leaves and a rounded, spreading form. It is dioecious, with tiny green or reddish flowers in spring. Female plants bear bright red berries that turn black when ripe. The bark yields the aromatic resin known as mastic.
Terebinth
Pistacia terebinthus
The terebinth (Pistacia terebinthus) is a deciduous shrub or small tree in the Anacardiaceae family, native to the Mediterranean region. It thrives in rocky, calcareous soils and produces an aromatic resin historically harvested as "Chios turpentine".

It is widely cultivated in ornamental ponds, aquariums, and water features where it plays a key role in natural water filtration by absorbing excess nutrients.
Garden pea
Pisum sativum
The garden pea (Pisum sativum) is an annual climbing herb from the legume family (Fabaceae), cultivated for thousands of years for its sweet, nutritious pods and seeds. It uses tendrils to attach itself to supports and can grow up to 2 meters in height under ideal conditions. Thanks to its ability to fix atmospheric nitrogen through Rhizobium root nodule bacteria, it enriches the soil and is a popular cover crop as well as a staple vegetable for gardeners.
Pittosporum
Pittosporum
Pittosporum is a genus of evergreen shrubs and small trees prized for their glossy, whorled foliage and clusters of fragrant, orange-blossom-scented flowers that bloom in spring. Widely used for hedging, screening, and foundation plantings, it is tough, tolerant of coastal salt spray, and responds well to shaping, making it a staple of ornamental landscaping in mild climates.
Kohuhu
Pittosporum tenuifolium
Kohuhu is a fast-growing evergreen shrub or small tree native to New Zealand, prized for its wavy-edged, glossy green leaves and near-black young stems. In late spring to early summer it bears small, honey-scented, deep purple flowers that release their fragrance most strongly in the evening. Naturally forming a dense, upright habit, it is widely planted as a windbreak, hedge, or specimen shrub in coastal and temperate gardens.
