Hi Linda,  Thank you for reaching out to us regarding your pine tree.  
  1. Can you please send us a  close up picture of the white substance
  2. It looks this is a potted tree and there is still a red tag.  Does the red tag give the full botanic name of the tree.  If so can you please provide that for us.
  3. How long have you had this tree?  
  4. How extensive is this white substance?  You showed two pictures.  How many more branches  or percent of branches are affected.  Perhaps you can provide us with a full picture of the tree.

Thank you,
Boulder Colorado Master Gardener
