David, I don't think you want pines of any sort if you are looking to screen
your property. If you'll take a look around, you might notice that pines
seem to lose their lower branches while growing rather tall (and brittle).

Leyland Cypress seems to be used quite a bit in this area, but they get bent
over by adverse weather (at least mine do).

Hi Everyone,

I want to plant several rows of pine trees as a screen on my property
(around 50-75 trees). I like the appearance of White pines, but I'm
afraid
that they will not do as well as Loblolly pines in this area of the
country?

Any suggestion or recommendations?

Thanks,

David
