Plant Description

The Jack Pine (Pinus banksiana) is a hardy, medium-sized conifer known for its rugged appearance and adaptability. Its twisted, irregular branches support clusters of short, yellow-green needles in pairs, often curved. The bark is scaly and gray-brown, deepening in texture with age. Its small, curved cones, which remain closed for years, require heat from fire to open, aiding in natural regeneration. This wind-resistant pine thrives in poor, sandy soils, making it an essential species in northern forests and boreal ecosystems.
