The tip of the leaf is acutely pointed. The [[conifer cone|cones]] are glaucous purple, maturing grey-brown, 6–15&nbsp;cm long and 4–6&nbsp;cm broad, with about 150–200 scales, each scale with a bract of which the apical 3–8&nbsp;mm is exserted on the closed cone, and two winged [[seed]]s; they disintegrate when mature to release the seeds.<ref name=farjon/>
