Pinus Strobus
Pinus Strobus, also known as Eastern White Pine or Weymouth Pine, is one of the most emblematic greens of the winter season.
With its long, thin needles and soft bluish-green tone, it adds a natural and elegant look to any floral composition.
Highly valued in the ornamental foliage industry, it provides a fluffy yet balanced presence that gives volume without overshadowing other materials.
At Steen Greens, it’s considered a seasonal highlight during the winter months, thanks to its versatility and resistance.
Main Characteristics
Pinus Strobus stands out for:
Fine, elongated needles grouped in clusters, with a distinct grey-green hue.
A slightly prickly yet flexible structure, easy to work with in floral designs.
Excellent durability, both fresh and dried, making it ideal for seasonal decorations.
A subtle pine fragrance that evokes a fresh, natural atmosphere.
These qualities make it a highly appreciated greenery among florists, decorators, and floral design companies looking for natural, long-lasting materials.
Uses & Applications in Ornamental Greenery
Pinus Strobus is one of the most frequently used greens for creating wreaths, garlands, bouquets, and table centerpieces.
Its natural appearance and the movement of its needles add depth and texture to arrangements.
It pairs perfectly with other winter greens such as Eucalyptus Cinerea, Nobilis, or Eucalyptus Boula, achieving a rustic yet refined look.
Additionally, its ability to dry evenly makes it suitable for both fresh and long-lasting designs, including wreaths and seasonal structures.
Storage and Handling
To keep Pinus Strobus in top condition:
Store it in a cool, ventilated place, away from direct sunlight.
Hydrate the stems when used fresh to extend its longevity.
For dried decorations, ensure the material is securely fixed to preserve its natural shape.
Its strong and flexible nature makes it easy to handle and ideal for large-scale or serial productions, especially during the holiday season.
