Explanation:

Pinus taeda is a species of pine tree. The name by which this pine tree is referred to is loblolly pine. This pine is found in the southern and eastern parts of the United States, most commonly inhabiting lowland and swampy areas. Officially it is the second most common tree species in the United States, with only the red maple tree being more common than it. It is the most commercial tree in the country and it is the prime tree species used by the lumber industry. The loblolly pine, like the other pine species is evergreen, and it is a tree species that is very well adapted to temperature extremes, which is one of the major reasons as to why it is so widespread across the country.
