Tamarack, also known as American Larch, can tolerate a wide range of soil conditions but grows most commonly on wet to moist soils. Does well in bogs and swampy areas. It is a deciduous conifer as well, with cones that emerge as flower-like. Tea made from the bark can aid in sore throats, colds, and skin problems, while using it as a poultice helps with sores, swellings, and burns. Can also help relieve frostbite. The heavy, durable wood is used principally for pulpwood but also for posts, poles, rough lumber, and fuelwood. Wildlife use the tree for food and nesting; it is also esthetically appealing and has significant potential as an ornamental. Can grow 40-80 ft. high. This is a hard to find item in 2025.
