Fresh spring red pine tree growth. Red Pine (P. resinosa) is a native growing mostly north of Flint, Michigan. It has two, 10-15 cm (4” to 6”) long needles in each cluster. When bent the needles break. This species has reddish-brown winter buds. Its common name comes from the flaky, reddish upper bark. Red Pines normally occur in mixed stands with Oaks, Cherries or White Pine.
