What kind of Spruce ?

Thanks for your good vote. I am not a
professional photo-bug. I just LEARN like
every one else. Your photos are beautiful.

Re: What kind of Spruce ?

This tree is called in Latin Picea abies. In Polish we call it smrek or smerek. One of the peaks in the Bieszczady Mountains is called Smerek (1222m). Greetings, Henryk

On the family tree - it is perhaps
RELATED to the ENGELMANN SPRUCE?
The cones - with thin papery scales!
I LOVE this tree. Thank you for
sharing - Dzieki and Cheers!!!
