Pinus — Pine 
We who live in New England are inclined to take our Pines for granted. 
Certainly the warm green foliage and interesting habit which varies with 
the individual tree of our Native White Pine contribute tremendously to the 
charm of our countryside. 
There are other varieties that have value for particular purposes—for 
planting in wind swept bleak places where the White Pine is not suited— 
for variety in texture and color of foliage. 
A particularly valuable addition is the Pinus thunbergi for areas subject 
to salt spray where almost no other evergreen will succeed. 
Years ago the seeds of this pine were brought to this country and planted 
near the seashore under the most adverse conditions. Through a long se- 
lective process a hardy strain has been developed. Without question this 
is the pine to use for exposed situations. 
The Pines are adaptable to variable conditions of soil and climate. They 
have long needles and wide spreading branches and they develop a rugged 
strength with size. 
Their best use is as large specimens either singly, in groups, or as large 
hedges, windbreaks and screens. There is also the dwarf spreading variety 
useful for foundation or low plantings.
