The White Spruce is a beautiful native evergreen tree with a conical form and a narrow crown. It is very winter hardy and grows abundantly in the northern temperate and boreal woods. It is also useful as a landscape specimen, hedge or windbreak and provides food and shelter to wildlife. The needles are blue green with lines of white dots on all sides. Cones are cylindrical and 1.5 – 2.5 inches (3.5 – 5.5 cm) long. It prefers a sunny site with moist, well drained soil, but is adaptable to other soil types except very dry.
