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.

Tulip Poplar is the perfect shade tree for wide open spaces. It has a shallow and extensive root system, so ensure you give it space to grow. The attractive and showy, yellow-orange, tulip shaped flowers are where this tree gets its name.

Tulip Poplar is somewhat rare in Canada but highly sought after as it is difficult to grow. Does best in a moist, well-drained soil.
