Discussion The largest conifer and formerly the most valuable tree of the Northeast, Eastern White Pine is used for construction, millwork, trim, and pulpwood. Younger trees and plantations have replaced the once seemingly inexhaustible lumber supply of virgin forests. The tall straight trunks were prized for ship masts in the colonial period. It is the state tree of Maine, the Pine Tree State; the pine cone and tassel are the state's floral emblem. The seeds were introduced in England (where it is called Weymouth Pine) from Maine in 1605 by Captain George Weymouth of the British Navy.

General
More than 120 named cultivars of northern white cedar have been named and used as ornamental trees and shrubs, where the name arborvitae is usually applied. Selections offer variety in habital form, color, cold hardiness, heat tolerance. It is often used for hedges and other types of border or shelter plantings.

The species was introduced into Europe for cultivation in the16th century. Stands of
northern white cedar also are valuable for wildlife habitat, particularly in severe winters for white-tailed deer, which use it for both shelter and browse. These trees also provide habitats for many species of birds.

The wood's light weight and resistance to decay makes it useful for a number of applications. The principal commercial uses of northern white-cedar are for rustic fencing and posts; other important products include cabin logs, lumber, poles, and shingles. Smaller amounts are used for mantles, paneling, piling, lagging, pails, potato barrels, tubs, ties, boats (especially canoes), tanks, novelties, and woodenware.

The timbers were used to make the ribs in birchbark canoes.

Cedar leaf oil is distilled from boughs and used in medicines and perfumes. Boughs are also used in floral arrangements. The essential oil of northern white cedar is used in cleansers, disinfectants, hair preparations, insecticides, liniment, room sprays, and soft soaps.

The Ojibwa are said to have made soup from theinner bark of the young twigs. The twigs are used by some to make teas for relief of constipation andheadache.

Description
General: Cypress family (Cupressaceae). Native shrub or tree growing to 15 (-38) meters tall, the crown narrowly conic to broadly pyramidal, with spreading, densely crowded branches; branchlets flattened, in fan-shaped sprays. Bark is gray to reddish-brown, 6-9 mm thick, fibrous, separated into flat, connected ridges. Leaves are evergreen, scalelike and abruptly pointed, 2 mm long, opposite in alternating pairs (in 4 rows), bright green above and pale green below, sometimes becoming yellowbrown in winter, with a spicy fragrance when crushed. Seed cones are ellipsoid, (6-)9-14 mm long, brown; seeds ca. 8 per cone, 4-7 mm long, with lateral wings about as wide as the body. The common name pertains to its northern distribution, cedar-like appearance, and white wood.

Variation within the species: ecotypic variation within the species has been documented but nonaturally occurring variants have been formally recognized. Significant genetic variation has favored the artificial selection of many cultivars, which differ primarily in leaf color and growth habit. Northern white cedar differs from western red-cedar (Thuja plicata) in leaf color (dull yellowish-green on both surfaces), minutely mucronate scales of the seed cones, and geography.

Distribution: The primary range of northern whitecedar is in eastern-southeastern Canada (west to Manitoba) and adjacent states of New England and the Great Lakes region (west to Minnesota); south of the main range, it occurs in scattered stands and southward along the Appalachians into North Carolina and Tennessee, where it is generally rare or extirpated. For current distribution, please consult the Plant Profile page for this species on the PLANTS Web site.
