Comments:
Engelmann Spruce a medium-sized tree that grows up to 130 feet (40 m.) tall. It is native to the Cascades and the Rocky Mountains. It is shade tolerant, and often grows in wet areas. The needles are thin and sharp like other spruce trees and grow from short, woody pegs that remain after the needles fall off. The thin, gray bark breaks into small scales on large trees.
