The twin pines

Pinus strobus

Immediately east of the willow, between it and the house, two Eastern White pines sit on the property line. They are beloved by squirrels. One pine features a low spreading branch with yellowed needles, which should probably be pruned, as it might be diseased.

Notes on the Eastern White Pine:
Cone production peaks every 3-5 years. They can last 200-400 years, and prefer well-drained soil and cool, humid climates, but can also grow in boggy areas and rocky areas. Will live past 200 years. 72-118 ft high. My fellows probably top out at 40-50 ft.
