Maybe my name reminded you! I like Shortleaf Pine (Pinus echinata), so I named myself for it!
Oops, Lonicera Maackii is Amur Honeysuckle, not Japanese Honeysuckle, sorry bout that.
I'll upload the photo of my Dwarf Eastern White Pine 'Nana'. It is a little brownish/goldish now, which is normal, it does that every year about this time.
The Missouri Dep't of Conservation sells Shortleaf Pine seedlings, but they say "shouldn't be planted North of the
Missouri River" in Missouri. Not sure how well it would do in Nebraska without northern protection.
I don't know how far PWN goes North Bob. That sounds reasonable to me that the warming trend would allow Pine Wilt Nematode to gradually move North.
