Description
The loblolly pine has been used for timber wood in America for almost 200 years. It is distinguished by its large, columnar trunk; attractive reddish-brown bark; and pale green needles. As one of the fastest-growing southern pines, it is used for a quick screen in many landscapes. Just make sure you have the room. They can get 20 to 40 feet wide at maturity.
