Plant Description

The Himalayan spruce or Picea smithiana is a majestic, evergreen conifer native to the Himalayan region. This tree is notable for its pendulous branchlets covered in long, soft, dark-green needles that cascade elegantly, giving it a distinctive weeping appearance. It can reach impressive heights of 30–50 meters (100–165 feet), with a tall, pyramidal form. The tree produces cylindrical cones that mature from green to brown. Adapted to cool climates, this spruce is a symbol of resilience and grace, thriving in high-altitude forests and adding a touch of grandeur to any landscape.
