This North American Pine is able to renew itself by producing new growth from the old trunk, very helpful to trees living in very poor conditions, I imagine out on the Prairie. The Latin name is quite descriptive

Grogeous pine, is this a winter color, or is it always this frosted looking?

Sorry I should have said it is iced up, why it should be I dont know, as other trees are clear.. It is normallly green but if unhappy is sometimes a yellowish colour.
