i actually don't know. So can someone please answer this question? Thank You :)
It should be--- Behind my house is a tall blue spruce tree.
Mistletoe is a parasitic plant that needs food from plants like the spruce to survive.
They can occupy different niches within the tree.
A spruce tree is a coniferous evergreen (pine needles and cones) and most maple trees are deciduous (leaves fall off).
Blue Spruce trees will eventually produce cones but they will be spruce cones.
Spruce trees grow better in the northern hemisphere. This is because they need colder winters and they need snowy weather making it easier to grow in the northern hemisphere.
Yes. The wood of poplars is relatively soft and hence is mostly used to make cardboard boxes, crates, paper, and veneer.
Leaves/needles with heavy cuticle that allows them (there are exceptions) to maintain their foliage year round. Most are diecious (two houses) having a male and a female plant. Needles have triangular cross sections in most spruces and the needles of pine trees are usually flat and most often arise in pairs or groups of 3 from a single site.
Enjoys cold climate and poor soil,
has layered twigs for warmth,
thick rough bark,
shorter branches so it won't be weighed down with all of the snow
Hope this helps

the trees grow well in wet cool climates
Spruces do not produce flowers, but they do produce seed. They are gymnosperms.
Colorado blue spruce [Picea pungens] is the native, state tree of Colorado and of Utah. And it grows best there. Elsewhere, it's susceptible to fungal disease. But its color isn't caused by fungus. Instead, it's caused by the waxy silver blue powder, ka bloom, that's naturally formed on the needles. The bloom can be wiped off, or washed off in intense rain and snow fall events. In fact, gradual loss of the powder over time may lessen overall color with age. But the color's genetically determined, and therefore not caused by cultural practices or environmental stresses.
the adaptation of the spruce in the coniferous forest would be they tend to survive in colder weathers
