And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day" (Genesis 1:31)
Flowering Trees and Shrubs of Sleepy Hollow Lake
- White Pine (Pinus strobus) -
(click on photos to enlarge)
Most people don't realize
that the white pine is a flowering tree, because we don't see the usual kinds of
flowering, but the white pine does flower as shown in this picture. One of the
interesting aspects of the white pine is that its needles are in groups of five.
This is another photo of
the bloom of the white pine. White pine can grow as tall as 100 feet and can be
identified from fairly long distances because of the way they tower over the other trees
in the eastern forests.
Note the new growth of pine
needles emerging from the top of the bloom, and the broken needle cluster on the left side
of the bloom cluster in the photo.
This is a close up view of
the white pine bloom. One of the characteristics of the white pine is their long and
relatively large cones. The white pine is yet another example of the wonders of
God's creation.
