Strange Burls on Virginia Pine (Pinus virginiana)

Found whilst hiking on a woodland trail. Jason and I thought it was beautiful!

Edit: I realize now that I haven't even documented this very common pine species in our area. I will be coming back with more shots of this awesome tree in the near future!

Really good point, Lisa. People don't seem to be documenting trees. There's a lot of room for species intros for even common trees, because nobody bothered.

It could be because they are hard to photograph. Posted 5 years ago
