Ponderosa Pine
It is a tall stately tree that is widely used in windbreaks.
With good care, Ponderosa Pine trees will grow to a height of six feet in six years, starting with a 2 year old seedling.
Once established, it is very drought resistant.
The Ponderosa Pine, Pinus Ponderosa, will grow on most soils including very sandy soils and sites with very little topsoil.
This evergreen conifer tree thrives in full sun and poor soil, and it is one of the tallest and most important timber pines in the western states.

Chinch bugs love grass. Small and nasty smelling, these 1/5 inch long bugs will do a job on your lawn. You can keep these obnoxious bugs away by aerating your lawn, removing thatch, and watering and fertilizing your lawn.
