Pacific Madrone

This is one of our native trees. The Pacific Madrone, Arbutus menziesii, grows along the Pacific coast from British Columbia to California. Sadly, it is declining throughout its range.

This photo was taken at Clayton Beach in Larrabee State Park and shows the attractive features of this small tree, its green wood and its naturally peeling red bark.
