The Bald Cypress is the only native, but other species have been introduced for horticultural purposes.

Eastern White Pine (Pinus strobus) is one of the more elegant conifers. The tree is easily identified by the long, "soft" and flexible needles and by its elongate female cones borne on a long stalk. The species is found through eastern North America. Eastern White Pine can form nearly pure stands on sandy soils but more commonly is found in small groves or single individuals in deciduous forests of the northeast on well-drained soils and also found along the banks of streams or rivers. Eastern White Pine is a very valuable and important timber tree and is also widely planted as an ornamental.

There are four, actually: the western larch or tamarack, Larix occidentalis; and the bald cypress, Taxodium species (generally 3 species are recognized: distichum--the most widepsread, ascendens, and mucronatum). Larch grows in the northwest (US and Canada), bald cypress in the southeast (US and Mexico).
