$16.00
The Eastern White Pine (Pinus strobus) is a tall and elegant conifer native to eastern North America, prized for its beauty and versatility. It grows rapidly, reaching heights of up to 100 feet, making it ideal for shade and privacy in landscapes. This tree played a crucial role in American history and industry, with its lightweight, high-quality wood used in shipbuilding, construction, and furniture-making by early European settlers. Indigenous peoples also found uses for its needles, bark, and resin.
Today, it remains valuable for timber, providing lumber, paneling, and cabinetry. It supports wildlife and helps prevent soil erosion. Conservation efforts have safeguarded its presence in North American forests.
Eastern White Pine is low-maintenance, adaptable to various soil types, and resistant to pests and diseases. Its slender needles are easy to clean up. These qualities, combined with its beauty and historical significance, make it a sought-after choice for gardens and landscapes.
