White Pine

The White Pine is an iconic native tree that grows naturally across all the eastern half of the country. It grows rapidly, adding 3 feet a year once well-established, and it forms a beautiful tall, straight trunk, covered in rugged gray bark. The needles are long and soft, with a characteristic blue-green color, and the cones are long and large. This hardy tree is ideal for natural planting in cold areas, since it is hardy to zone 3, and it makes a beautiful lawn specimen. It can even be clipped into a unique hedge. Use it to restore the natural vegetation of your area, or just to enjoy living with a beautiful native tree.
