Picea abies is a popular, large, evergreen conifer with a dense, symmetrical, pyramidal habit that broadens with age. This hardy tree has a grey/brown smooth bark that develops grooves with age, green, needle-like leaves that are born on horizontal branches and pendulous, green cones that emerge in spring and mature to brown before falling. The Norway spruce, more commonly known as the Christmas tree, will reach a mature height of 30m and a mature spread of 4m. Growing well in all aspects, in moist, well-draining soil, this versatile tree is a popular choice for a screen, specimen or windbreak in larger gardens, parks, and woodland, often used for decorating at Christmas.
