Family: Pinaceae, Genus: Pinus

Description:

Pinus taeda, commonly known as loblolly pine, is a tall coniferous evergreen native to the Southeastern United States. It can grow between 60 to 80 feet in height with a spread of 25 to 35 feet. The tree is characterized by its cinnamon brown bark and dark green needles, which are 2 to 4 inches long. It produces reddish-brown pine cones in early fall, providing food for wildlife like squirrels and chipmunks. This fast-growing tree is highly valued for lumber and pulpwood and is the official state tree of Arkansas.
