What is the latin name of the tall pine with a long straight trunk and the needles only on the top quarter? You see them in old surburban gardens planted in groups.

Re nosdda's entry there is no such thing as a scottish pine.It could be a scots pine ,pinus sylvestris,pine needles are usually twisted and at 2-3 inches are shorter than most pines and are in pairs. Most pines have varying numbers of pine needles in groups,also of different lengths (the scots pine did come from Scotland though)Count the number of needles in groups,the length of them and colour of bark and any thing else like size of cones that could help then come back to me.

Is this it?
Pinus densiflora - Japanese Red Pine — A stately tree, eventually reaching 90-100', it is a fast grower when young. The handsome, broad head is comprised of long, bluish-green needles and is borne on the top quarter of the height of the straight, reddish trunk. The trunk often is composed of multiple trunks at ground level.

A Lombardy poplar includes suggestions. yet they are short-lived wood that substitute into rather unattractive after approximately 2 many years. If this is the tree you had in suggestions, ask a community nurseryman what a stable replace would be to your area that is going to final a minimum of a hundred years.
