What makes this tree special.

The Eastern White Pine features long, soft, flexible needles that create a feathery, elegant look. It has a mild pine scent—much lighter than firs—and tends to hold its needles well when kept hydrated. Its branches are more flexible, making it perfect for lighter ornaments or a natural, minimalist decorating style.

The story behind the species.

Eastern White Pine has deep historical roots in America. It was highly valued by early colonists and even designated as the “King’s Tree” by the British for use as ship masts due to its impressive height. It’s native to the eastern U.S. and was one of the earliest species sold commercially as Christmas trees.

Tips for keeping your tree fresh all season.

Keep your Eastern White Pine well hydrated and avoid placing heavy ornaments on its softer branches. Because it has a mild scent, it’s a great choice for those sensitive to fragrance. Regular watering ensures the long needles stay soft and intact. Cleanup is easy thanks to its strong needle retention.
