The Proverbial Pine Tree

from: Lawn and Garden Magic


The perfect tree for Christmas is, of course, the pine tree. It has long, needle-like leaves bundled in a cone-shaped foliage that points upwards making the pine tree a universal symbol for that merriest day of the year. Every year families bring home pines to decorate with colorful balls, mistletoe, stars, dancing lights, and golden sprinkles. Since this tradition began, Christmas doesn't seem complete without a pine tree gracing the household, complete with ornaments attached to its stems and foliage.

There are about 35 different species of pines, all of them sharing the same prominence, especially in areas that have colder climates during the Christmas season.

In fact, a cold climate is one of the needs of the pine tree. Its rather brittle leaves can't withstand the heat of the more humid months since they're too small and thin, and can only hold so much water. Oppressive heat is enough to dehydrate them.

This is why a pine tree also needs moist soil that's able to retain a lot of water so that the tree can feed from it for a long, long time -- especially during non-winter season. Horticulturists often use mulching to help the soil retain specific amounts of water. Mulching is the method of spreading leaves and straw over the soil to increase its water-retentive qualities.

Pine tress are also durable, especially their barks. This makes pines a favorite tree with furniture manufacturers, as they provide durable wood that are use to manufacture equally durable products.

Some pines bear flowers, or cones, which are named because of their rather peculiar shape. They also give off a pleasant scent that makes pines a truly desirable addition to any garden or lawn.

However, pine trees do require occasional trimming since their foliage usually shoots of into different directions. It's therefore the owner's responsibility to make sure their pine retains its shape. It's the pine tree's cone-like shape that gives these trees their unique personality.

If you're planning on bringing home a pine this Christmas, make sure you have the space since pines can grow as tall as 40 feet. If your lawn or garden is surrounded by structures and power lines, planting a pine can pose a problem if it's not located properly.
