About Pseudotsuga menziesii (Douglas Fir conifer)

Pseudotsuga menziesii - Pseudotsuga menziesii, commonly called Douglas fir, is a very large conifer that grows 50-80' tall in cultivation. Unique forked cone bracts distinguish this tree from all other conifers. Cones (to 4.5" long) are pendulous with protruding trident-shaped bracts. Flat dark green needles with white banding beneath. Fallen or plucked needles leave raised circular leaf scars on the twigs. Needles are fragrant when bruised. Narrow pyramidal shape with branching to the ground when young. Trees become more cylindrical with age as they lose their lower branching, with older trees typically having branching only on the top 1/3 of the tree. Synonymous with and sometimes called Pseudotsuga taxifolia.. Family : Pinaceae
