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.

Norway Spruce is a large, openly branched evergreen recognized by its drooping branchlets and large cones. This hardy, adaptable tree thrives in moist conditions, but will grow in clay or sandy soils.

Norway Spruce is the fastest growing spruce we carry but it's not as dense as other spruce trees.

It is sometimes used as a Christmas tree.
