Eastern Hemlock (Tsuga canadensis)

Location Description: Eastern Hemlock is typically found on moist slopes, rocky areas, and narrow stream valleys at elevations of 0 to 5,900 feet. This particular tree can be found at the opening of the path by the beggining of the chain-link fence to your right.

Rationale for Including: This tree was inculded because it is a newer tree that was planted along the path. It stnad out, because there are two yuong saplings directly underneath it which probably resulted from asexual reproduction.
