Pinus strobus
Choose White Pine if you have a roomy, sunny, somewhat sheltered spot and want a soft-looking native evergreen that can become a real shade tree. The tradeoff: it is not for tight yards or harsh, windy exposure.
| Category | Grade | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape Impact | A- | White Pine has a soft, natural look that works well as a major evergreen feature when given enough room. |
| Growth Rate | A- | It grows at a strong pace once established, which is useful for homeowners who do not want to wait decades for presence. |
| Maintenance | B | It does not need regular shaping, but broken limbs, lower branches, and site-related stress may need attention over time. |
| Deer Resistance | A- | Deer rarely bother this tree; it is a dependable choice where deer are a concern, though young trunks can still be rubbed. |
| Small Space Fit | D | This is a tree for open space, not a narrow bed, small entry, or close foundation planting. |
| Screening Value | B- | It can provide evergreen cover, but the open, natural habit is less dense than a spruce or arborvitae screen. |
At PGNE, we would steer White Pine toward larger properties first. It is a strong long-term tree when sited with space and some protection, but it is not a shortcut for a tight privacy hedge.

Only if you accept a looser, natural screen; use Norway Spruce for denser cover.
It can struggle in harsh exposure, so give it some shelter if possible.
Usually no; give this tree room away from foundations, walks, and overhead conflicts.

The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!
Very nice
Guys installed for me as well
Great job
Huge selection and fast delivery. All plants arrived in great condition.
Great prices and Unbelievable selection of big and small trees, shrubs, and flowering perennials! Nicest folks to work with. And local delivery is awesome! First time purchasing from this company, , and have already told friends, neighbors and family. The owner Chris is professional, knowledgeable, and yet laid back in a most friendly way. Mags in the office will help with any details. My all time BEST garden purchase EVER!
Progrowers was a great company to purchase from. Very fast delivery to my house. The tree seems to be in great condition and is so far doing really well!

Good size but tree seemed to be root bound. Tree budding late August.
