It is an evergreen tree that can reach up to 40 meters in height, but more commonly attains a height of 12-20 meters. Its bark is black and scaly, and the leaves (needles) are in fascicles (bundles) of two, a characteristic feature of the Pinus genus.

For its cultivation, it generally prefers full sun and well-drained soil. It can tolerate a variety of soil types, including sandy, loamy, and clay soils, as long as they are well-draining.
