Virginia pine, also known as Spruce pine
Virginia pine (Pinus virginiana) is a hardy evergreen tree that thrives in full sunlight and well-drained, acidic soils. It is drought-tolerant and often found in dry, sandy, or rocky areas. This species is well-suited for covering barren or disturbed sites and tends to grow most effectively in pure stands rather than mixed with other tree species.
