The Norway Spruce is a popular tree known for its conical shape and evergreen leaves that make it widely used for Christmas decoration. It is also known as the European Spruce, and in Latin, "Picea abies." Some other synonyms for the Norway Spruce are Red Spruce, White Spruce, Black Spruce, and Alberta Spruce. The Red and White Spruce trees are native to the eastern part of North America, while the Black and Alberta Spruce trees are found in the western part of North America. All these trees are used for timber, ornamental purposes, and for making paper and pulps. However, the Norway Spruce remains the most popular variety, especially during the festive season.
