I took a photo of this pine (I believe it's Norfolk Pine) at a customers residence. It has an interesting shape.
The supposed history is that the Hosbrook brothers (local to Cincinnati) brought a bunch of seedlings back from Virginia after the Civil War and planted them on their farm (Hosbrook farm).
A pump well also remains from the farm (no picture). The farm is no more but there are a lot of pines in the area that are from that era. Good to see some history and trees are still with us as too many trees and other items of historic nature are being cleared for the sake of developments.
