Siberian Larch vs Black Spruce
Larix sibirica
Picea mariana
NOT AVAILABLE THIS SEASON
Siberian Larch is a large, cold hardy conifer. Like the Tamarack, its needles turn golden yellow and drop in the fall, and it is able to handle saturated soils.
If you are looking for a long-lived tree for your large property or shelterbelt with quite wet soil, this is the tree for you.
This variety is often used on the south side of a shelterbelt to let sunlight in during the winter and to provide protection or shading during the summer.
Black Spruce is a medium-sized coniferous tree that tolerates wet ground better than most spruces. It has a characteristic straight trunk and a narrow crown.
