Siberian Larch vs Tamarack Larch
Larix sibirica
Larix laricina
Siberian Larch is a large, cold hardy conifer. Like the Tamarack, its needles turn golden yellow and drop in the fall, and it is able to handle saturated soils.
If you are looking for a long-lived tree for your large property or shelterbelt with quite wet soil, this is the tree for you.
This variety is often used on the south side of a shelterbelt to let sunlight in during the winter and to provide protection or shading during the summer.
Staff Favorite!
Tamarack is a small to medium-sized native conifer tree featuring needles that turn an attractive gold before dropping in the fall.
This cold-tolerant tree grows well in very wet conditions, as long as it is exposed to full sun.
