When most people think of conifers, they think of pine. We embroidered this Scrub Pine (also known as Virginia Pine) as one of the four native pine species to Ohio.  
 
Scrub pine seeds are an important food source for many small mammals and birds, including northern bobwhites. Scrub pine forms good nesting sites for woodpeckers due to a preponderance of softened wood in older trees. Native Americans also used parts of the tree to treat several ailments.
