Pinus strobus, is an evergreen coniferous member of Pinaceae family. It can reach heights between 70 to 80 meters. The needles are in fascicles of 5 with a deciduous sheath, they are flexible, bluish-green, finely separated and 5 to 13 cm long. It is popular as a Christmas tree since it holds its needles well, even long after being harvested.

Weymouth brought it back to England in 1620. During the age of sailing ships, they were reserved for the Royal British
