Tree Talk: Eastern White Pine

Here's another one for lovers of big trees! Eastern white pine (Pinus strobus) is an immense tree of immense historical, cultural, and economic importance. Once the dominant species of much of the northeastern U.S. and southeastern Canada, the enormous and economically valuable eastern white pine was a driving factor behind European colonial history. Old-growth white pine stands were cleared in the ensuing centuries, and the tree now mostly exists with a cohort of northern hardwood species, which it can eventually tower over. Eastern white pine is ecologically important and still commercially valuable, and is the state tree of Maine and Michigan, the state flower of Maine, and on the flag of Vermont.
