Pinus virginiana, also known as the Virginia pine, is a medium-sized tree found in the United States, from Long Island in New York to western Tennessee and Alabama. It typically grows to 9-18 meters in height, but can grow larger under ideal conditions. This pine prefers well-drained loam or clay, but can also grow on poor, sandy soil. It has a lifespan of 65-90 years and its needles are short, yellow-green, and often twisted. The tree is commonly used for reforestation and as a Christmas tree, but can also provide wood pulp and lumber. Its wood is known to become very hard over time, but is not resistant to rot unless treated with preservatives. Pinus virginiana is closely related to other pine species such as Pinus banksiana, Pinus clausa, and Pinus contorta, but can be distinguished by its twisted needles and non-serotinous cones. It is found in dry forested areas and is poorly adapted to fire. The Cherokee Native Americans used P. virginiana for medicinal purposes and in cultural rituals. The tree's name comes from the Latin word for pine and the state of Virginia. It has been used for various purposes throughout history, including as mine timbers
