White Pine

Eastern White Pine, or Pinus Strobus, is a large-sized evergreen that is commonly used throughout Long Island and the Northeast due to it's cold-hardiness and rapid growth. It is an excellent screening tree that prefers full sun but will also survive in shade conditions. Left alone, these trees can grow to heights of 40-60 ft. When sheared regularly, these trees keep a nice uniform shape and stay very dense. White Pines do not like salty conditions.  Additional Information: Latin Name: Pinus strobus Plant Type: Conifer, Tree Shrub Type: Evergreen Exposure: Full Sun Deer Resistant: No Mature Height: 50-60 Feet Mature Width: 20-30 Feet Growth Rate: 12-18" per year Hardiness Zone: Zone 3-8 Habit: Pyramidal Water Needs: Everyday initially.
