Pinus strobus (White Pine) Fern Photo By Jason Hollinger (CommonPinus strobus (White Pine) is one of my favorite trees. It is fast growing and has an exquisite needle texture that looks fluffy enough to sleep on. Another great dimension of this plant is its exquisite smell, the smell of the north woods. Although this plant is at the southern tip of its range naturally in northern Illinois, it makes an excellent tree for your landscape.
