We have a lot of pine trees with cones in my area, but I've never seen the cones in a group like this or vertical like this. Do you know what type of tree this is? So interesting!

So many questions...all the flower photos from all over the world and so many I'm not familiar with. God really did his finest on all these varieties of flowers that I've been enjoying here and on Flickr.

@piatigorsky: Your photo made me get up and get some ice and a diet soda! The persuasiveness of the picture!

No idea, I'm afraid. It is just in the garden and, I'd guess, about 10m years old.

Plantnet suggests:

Abies koreana E.H.Wilson Corean fir
Abies nordmanniana (Steven) Spach Caucasian fir

And I have just poured the last dregs of gin and a tin of tonic.
