White Pine Tree Seedlings for Sale | Pinus strobus
White Pine Seedlings are tall and wide evergreen conifers used for privacy or living fences. They are characterized by their long, slender needles bundled in groups of five and their straight trunk, which is often used for timber and lumber.
They produce cones to reproduce and make new trees as conifers. For gardeners, it is a popular plant because of its evergreen color. No matter what time of year you look at it, it will always have the same stunning blue-green needles.
Where White Pine Seedlings Thrive | Native Tree Adaptability
This tree was originally native to North America. It can be found in Canada and the United States. One Native American tribe called it the “Tree of Peace.” Because Captain George Weymouth first brought the tree’s seeds to the United States from England in 1605, it was known by the “Weymouth” appellation for many years. Today, this title is still included in one of the tree’s common names.

How To Grow & Care Tips
Plant seedlings in early spring or fall when temperatures are mild. Choose a well-drained site with the proper sunlight for the tree species. Dig a hole that's deep and wide enough to support but not hamper the root system without bending or crowding the roots. Place the seedling in the hole, ensuring the root collar (where the roots meet the stem) is level with or slightly above the soil surface. Fill the hole with soil, and pack it around the roots to remove air pockets. Water thoroughly after planting and keep the moisture consistent, especially during the first few years, to help the roots establish. Put a 2-4 inch layer of mulch around the base, but keep it away from the trunk to retain moisture and prevent weed growth. Protect the seedlings from pests and physical damage with suitable guards or fencing. Tree seedlings will thrive and grow into strong, healthy trees with proper care.
