Bingham White Pine Seed Orchard
| Northwest Management, Inc. manages the
Bingham White Pine Seed Orchard. This seed orchard produces rust
resistant white pine seed. Western white pine (Pinus monticola)
is susceptible to white pine blister rust. Beginning in the 50's
and 60's, rust-resistant seedlings developed by the USFS Intermountain
Research Station were planted at the orchard site. The orchard
is a co-operative effort of several agencies, under the umbrella of the
White Pine Species Group of the Inland Empire Tree Improvement Cooperative.
The long-term goal of the cooperative is to restore the western white pine to its former ecological majesty throughout the forests of the Inland Northwest. You can help reach this goal by planting white pine wherever it will grow. |
