Hi anyone and everyone!

I have been horrified to see that someone chopped down a perfectly beautiful large pine near me. I want to try propagating (?) it on my own property if possible. I don\'t know what kind of pine it is; and if you know, can you tell me so I can research it? I need to know how to start one or two myself (propagate?).

THANKS in advance for ANY help at all with this. Mid-Atlantic, Zone 7a, I think.
