Habitat
occurs in pinyon-juniper, pine-oak, juniper-oak, Madrean evergreen, and riparian woodlands, and in a ponderosa pine forest. It rarely grows in dense stands. Typically, it occurs in small groves or as individuals interspersed with other junipers, ponderosa pine, oaks, or various understory species. It is a common component of pinyon-juniper woodlands with pinyon and/or singleleaf pinyon. Source US Forest Service FEIS.
