|discussion=<p>Orobanche pinorum is unusual in appearance as the stem and inflorescence axis are often markedly darker in color than the flowers.</p><!--
--><p>Orobanche pinorum is chiefly host-specific on Holodiscus discolor (Rosaceae) and is largely sympatric with that species. There are a few occurrences outside the range of H. discolor where it is reported on other species of Holodiscus. Unverified reports on herbarium sheets of parasitism on various conifers exist. Disjunct locations in Nevada and New Mexico are noteworthy, because they suggest that this species may be found in appropriate habitat in the intervening Great Basin territory.</p>
