This listing is for 50 x Mountain Hemlock (tsuga mertensiana) seeds. Mountain hemlock is a tree of the upper slopes of the mountains of western North America, its range extending from Alaska to California. It grows in moist soils in forests. It is often considered the beauty of the genus. Unlike the other species, mountain hemlock’s concave needles are the same colour on both surfaces & spread in all directions. This gives the tree an attractive, fluffy, cedar-like appearance. The needles are wax-covered & the tree generally bluish in colour, with some provenances a strong blue-grey. The cones, looking rather like spruce cones, are larger than those of the other hemlocks. Full growing & planting insructions go out with each order. 50 X Mountain Hemlock | Tsuga Mertensiana Seeds
