Description:

The Pinus palustris, commonly known as the longleaf pine, is a slow-growing evergreen conifer notable for its impressive height, reaching up to 100 feet, and its long lifespan of over 300 years. It features green needle-like leaves that can grow up to 20 inches long and produces the largest pine cones among southern pines. The tree is characterized by its scaled, cinnamon-brown bark and a self-pruning nature. It is fire-resistant and typically matures to a height of 60 to 80 feet with a canopy spread of 30 to 40 feet.
