Numbers and distributions of seed and pollen cones were assessed on 90 Larixlaricina (Du Roi) K. Koch trees of 5, 6, and 7 years. Respectively, 27, 90, and 96% of the trees bore seed cones and 0, 62, and 96% bore pollen cones. Numbers of seed cones per tree averaged 9, 206, and 390 and of pollen cones, 0, 42, and 838. Ninety-nine, 88, and 30% of the seed cones were borne laterally on long shoots. At ages 6 and 7 years, 22 and 2% of the pollen cones were borne laterally. Seed cones occurred equally on side or lower surfaces of parent long shoots, but pollen cones were mainly on lower surfaces. Lateral cones were mainly borne proximally on the parent long shoots at first production; later, some were medial and a few were distal. Proportions of short shoots bearing seed cones increased acropetally. More short shoots bearing pollen cones were medial than proximal or distal. At age 6, proximal short shoots bearing pollen cones exceeded distal ones: the reverse occurred at age 7. Seed-cone and pollen-cone zones were not separate in the crowns, but within any shoot category, seed cones predominated on stronger shoots and pollen cones on weaker shoots.
