Eastern White Pine is a large pine native to eastern North America. It is the provincial tree of Ontario.

This long-lived, rapid growing giant is known for its long, flexible blue-green needles. Eastern White Pine is low-maintenance and makes a beautiful ornamental tree suitable for large properties and parks.

Jack Pine is a cold tolerant native species that can survive on dry, sandy or gravelly sites.
