Indigenous to Europe, Norway Spruce, also known as Picea abies, is a large evergreen coniferous tree that is characterized by its towering height of 115-180 ft, and a trunk diameter of up to 3-5 ft. Displaying a fast growth rate when young, this tree blossoms into a tall, broad column, tapering toward the top with a strong central leader. Its shoots are orange-brown and feature hairless and quadrangular needles that are dark green on all four sides. Young needles are bright green, maturing into a darker hue as they age. Norway Spruce cones are the longest of any spruce, measuring 3.5-6.5 inches long, and they mature brown 5-7 months after pollination. A versatile tree, it is commonly used for landscaping and wood production, and it thrives in cold climates. Norway Spruce sap is also celebrated for its medicinal properties, notably the treatment of boil and abscess pain. Furthermore, it's often used as Christmas trees and is prevalent in the US and Europe.
