Spruce Pine Tree

Spruce Pine Tree, also called Walter or cedar, are hardy evergreen types that thrive in sunny environments with moist, acidic, fertile soil. These are native to the riverbanks and swamps of the Southeastern United States between South Carolina and Louisiana and are most likely to succeed in Hardiness Zones 8 and 9. They grow best in warm regions with long, humid summers and mild winters. While they prefer full sun and moist, sandy soil with a low pH, they are versatile. Spruce Pine Tree Is Shade-Tolerant Spruce Pines are more shade-tolerant than most other pines and can grow in more soil types. They are also considered to be exceptionally resistant to insects and diseases compared to many different species of evergreens. A mature one can reach a maximum height of 60 to 100 ft. and a width of 30 to 40 ft, though when planted alone, they often reach a height of 30-50 ft. These can live for up to 80 years in ideal conditions. They are evergreens, so their soft, bushy needles remain fresh
