PINE — (PINUS) 
Pines are large trees, coarse and shaggy in texture at 
maturity. The larger species have somewhat compact cone 
shapes when young and may be kept in that shape for a con- 
siderable period. Their best use is as large specimens, either 
singly, in groups or large hedges, windbreaks and screens. The 
smaller varieties have a limited use at the house foundation, 
but are best as “facers” for group plantings of the larger sorts. 
Few pines care for very moist soil, but thrive in medium to 
dry, and flourish in poor soil. They are full sun trees entirely, 
and withstand the most windswept exposure..
