Comments:
A tall growing, over 100 feet, timber tree that was found over wide areas of the southeast. After much of it was harvested, little of this species has been replanted. It is initially slow growing, with only a small amount if vegetation above ground for the first three years. It has a very long needles and a large cone. Generally not used in the landscape.
