Umbrella Pine.  Is it the same pine that was imported by Roman Emperors and still grows in Rome also?  I believe it may have come from Africa?  I remember seeing them on the hills in Rome.  Big trees.

Well, by golly y'all got it before Jeff was able to figure it out.
Paul actually nailed it when he said Pinus pinea..and..he didn't even know it.  It's Pinus pinea Linnaeus.  Then Corley5 got the common name and told some about it. Way to go guys!!!  If you'll both send me $20 to cover shipping and handling I'll send you your prize C.O.D. ;D ;D
