This tree makes a unique yard tree and becomes the talk of the neighborhood when it turns an eye-popping yellow in the fall. This is a deciduous conifer meaning it sheds its needles in the fall. The tamarack is truly an interesting and unusual specimen.  Plant on the east or west side of your home for maximum energy benefit.
