About Pine Trees

Pine trees are coniferous evergreens with long, needle-shaped leaves. They are widely planted in North America, particularly in northern areas. Pine trees produce cones for the propagation of the species. Pines are coniferous trees, and there are about 100 or so species of Pines worldwide!

The United States has about 35 species of native Pines growing mostly in colder climates of the country. There are White Pine, Red, Black, Mountain, Stone, Scots, Sugar, Ponderosa, and many more varieties!

Pines are important to the overall health of a forest and are valued by humans for their timber and wood pulp production.

Pine trees are long-lived and typically reach ages of 100 years or more when left unperturbed. Most Pine trees prefer full sun exposure and require little or no extra water during their mature stages. 

How & Where to Plant Pine Trees

Pines grow well in acidic soils and require good soil drainage. Pine seeds (from the cones) are commonly eaten by birds, squirrels, and other woodland creatures, who then spread the seeds for wide proliferation.

Pine trees make attractive ornamental plantings for homeowners and are widely used to create natural windbreaks or privacy screens.

Pine trees can look very attractive in the winter landscape of northern regions. Most Pine needles are green and tend to appear darker green against a dull brown or white winter background.

Pine trees are also known for their pleasing smell and are commonly used for commercial and in-home Christmas decorations and winter décor. The cones, pine boughs, and trees all are distinctive and have been used as seasonal decorations for centuries. Their fallen needles are highly sought-after mulch for garden beds!
