Where I work, the hemlocks have mostly died. Where I live, hemlocks do not grow. Where I grew up, hemlocks still flourish. Invasive species are a serious threat. I am just happy there are still places where I can enjoy these trees in all of their living glory. #tsuga #easternhemlock #plants #botany #nature #ecology #forest #trees #foresthealth #hemlocks #indiana #sunset #sunsetporn #gymnosperm #longshadows #treescapes #treesofinstagram #conifers #tsugacanadensis #nativetrees #nativeplants #winteriscoming

You can even look up and get some of the best views on Smith Lake lakeside. Never ending beauty all around. 📷 @halocove ・・・ “Beneath the cool shade of the #easternhemlock . #halocove #devilsbranch 〰️〰️🌳💕〰️〰️ #smithlaketrees #smithlakeshorelines #smithlakebeauty #smithlakenature #trees #nature #hugatree #alabama #alabamalakes #alabamalife #smithlakecommunity #smithlakesocial #lakeliving #lakeside #lewissmithlake #lifeonthelake #lifeonsmith #livinglakelife #livelifelakeside #visitsmithlake #smithlake #smithlakeal #smithlakepix #smithlakelife #smithlakemagazine #thelakesidelifemagazine #thelakesidelife (at Smith Lake, Alabama) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_gH9O0lR52/?igshid=1c0ohmylptzk3

Up close and personal with the #needles oh an #EasternHemlock (Tsuga canadensis). Grafton lake state park is loaded with these conifers, the small cones frequently finding their way into the lake. #hemlock #hemlocktree #tsuga (at Grafton Lakes State Park)
