Feeling the Heat

Ideas? Northern michigan.

I came across a small grove of these that was stunningly beautiful to be in. Tempted to plant a stack and maybe in 15 years, I'd have a nice little place to visit.

(I'm on a quest to plant a huge variety of trees on my property...these need to have a place!)

Thanks! [Hearth.com] Yet another ID
 
Eastern hemlock (Tsuga canadensis)
Love this tree too -it reminds me of Pennsylvania.
Unfortunately, it's been under pressure from hemlock woolly adelgid, which can be treated using a systemic insecticide but at financial cost.
 
Yeppers,. Hemlock, PA state tree. Blight and woolly adelgid are taking a toll round here. I am loosing the tallest largest tree on my property to this. Was a beautiful tree, not down to a couple branches of green, the rest dead. I have a nice healthy one near the house, but sooner or later it has to come down to make room for wrap around porch. Old barns here are made of Hemlock, as it is naturally insect resistant.
I did transplant a couple into my field line. Hoping to transplant more. I really like this tree.
