Introducing the Pinus strobus, also known as the eastern white pine, northern white pine, soft pine, Weymouth pine, and white pine: a large, conical tree native to eastern North America. This fast-growing evergreen is a great addition to any landscape, whether as a specimen, in groupings, or for creating screens. It produces blue-green needles up to 4 inches long and prefers full sun, although it can tolerate light shade.

Additionally, the plant has medicinal uses, with its resin known for its antiseptic and diuretic properties, and edible uses, such as brewing the fresh needles into an aromatic tea rich in vitamins A and C.
