Picea glehnii
Also called Glehn's Spruce
Sakhalin spruce is a cone-shaped conifer native to Sakhalin and northern Japan, reaching 17 to 30 metres tall, with chocolate-brown scaly bark. It is a forest tree grown in cool climates, not a common houseplant.
Picea glehnii, the Sakhalin spruce or Glehn's spruce, is a species of conifer in the family Pinaceae. It was named after a Russian botanist, taxonomist, Sakhalin and Amur river regions explorer, geographer and hydrographer Peter von Glehn (1835—1876), the person who was the first to describe this conifer. In Japan people call this tree アカエゾマツ, which means "red spruce".
