Pine, White
$45.00
Pinus strobus
White pine is a large, fast-growing tree, which is usually tall and straight, with 3″-5″ long needles, and gray bark. Trees lose their lower limbs as they grow. White pine grows best on loamy, well drained soils, but can tolerate a wide range of soils. White pine tolerates full sun to partial shade. White pine blister rust and white pine weevil are current health issues but can be managed with strategic pruning.
White pine is moderately important in the timber industry, and commonly planted for wood products, landscaping, Christmas trees, and wildlife habitat. Old white pines are important sites for bald eagle nests.
