Spruce Pine
Spruce Pine is a choice ornamental pine with dense dark green needles and most unusual bark for a pine. The trunk looks like a hardwood tree trunk! Usually found in mixed stands just upslope from stream bottomlands in coastal areas of the southern U.S.. It is not commonly cultivated but is a choice ornamental that is more shade tolerant than most pines. It is also known as Walter's Pine being named for Thomas Walter, early South Carolina botanist.
