Tamarack/American Larch – Larix laricina

Tamarack is a beautiful native conifer that loses its needles in fall. It is commonly found in wet, swampy or boggy locations, but can grow in other locations as long as soil moisture is consistent. In spring, small rosy pink cones can be seen as new needles begin to emerge. In summer, the soft green needles give the tree a fine texture. In autumn, the needles turn yellow before they fall. This species is a host plant for some larval moths. Bare Root Plant Size: 2-3 feet Height at Maturity: 50-75 feet
