Description
Look at this beautiful trunk of a tree, which the wood-cutters have left just in the right place for the light.
Pinus banksiana.
Pinus contorta.
Jack pine is an eastern North American pine. Its native range in Canada is east of the Rocky Mountains from the Mackenzie River in the Northwest Territories to Cape Breton Island in Nova Scotia, and the north-central and northeast of the United States from Minnesota to Maine, with the southernmost part of the range just into northwest Indiana and northwest Pennsylvania. It is also known as grey pine and scrub pine. In the far west of its range, Pinus banksiana hybridizes readily with the closely related lodgepole pine. The species epithet banksiana is after the English botanist Sir Joseph Banks.
Unusually for a pine, the cones normally point forward along the branch, sometimes curling around it. That is an easy way to tell it apart from the similar lodgepole pine in more western areas of North America. The cones on mature trees are serotinous. They open when exposed to intense heat, greater than or equal to 50 °C. The typical case is in a fire, however cones on the lower branches can open when temperatures reach 27 °C due to the heat being reflected off the ground. Additionally, when temperatures reach −46 °C, the cones will open, due to the nature of the resin.
