Hi there, Do anyone have an idea what species of pine this is? It’s a five-needle fine with very fine needles. Thanks 😁 ![IMG_20230127_132728](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex029/uploads/bonsaimirai/original/3X/d/d/dde7cac8817a14912a619bd6292422b47db56111.jpeg) ![IMG_20230127_132719](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex029/uploads/bonsaimirai/original/3X/b/3/b33e4ecb4fcd4ccbe1c47b1dc0185e5e14a801da.jpeg) ![IMG_20230127_132650](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex029/uploads/bonsaimirai/original/3X/a/b/ab684897f463c8b951f1a36b86f78dff967faa45.jpeg) ![IMG_20230127_132613](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex029/uploads/bonsaimirai/original/3X/4/6/46d6d292ebf3b8aaf4a1a6debd88f3dfe7ff02b2.jpeg) ![IMG_20230127_132555](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex029/uploads/bonsaimirai/original/3X/4/a/4ae4c46c7cd69e45be6747e3a6cb1c551c589f30.jpeg) ---

I believe it’s a white pine ---

How long are the needles and where is the tree? My guess is Eastern White Pine - Pinus strobus, but that is most applicable to the NE portion of the USA and across the border in Canada. ---

Pinus Strobus was also my first guess… Needles are approx. 2 inches long. Im in Austria, but it was an normal nursery tree many many years ago ---

One more voice in the back for: " strobis was my initial thought" ---

Location might remove any doubt, where is it located? ---

That is strobus without a doubt. I’m in MA and they are everywhere. ---

Hi,it should most likely be a pinus strobus.
