    Pinus strobus 'Stony Brook' - Weeping Eastern White Pine. For outstanding dramatics give this one a try. Best if staked for the first 8-10 years. Clusters of long, widely spaced needles decorate the ends of strongly draping branches, leaving the tree's open contorted form and gorgeous silver bark on display. Discovered at Kate Brook Nursery, the large pine is a handsome, ornamental accent or it cascades down and covers a bank beautifully.
