The blue spruce (Picea pungens), also commonly known as green spruce,[2] Colorado spruce, or Colorado blue spruce, is a species of spruce tree native to North America in Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming.[3] It is noted for its blue-green colored needles, and has therefore been used as an ornamental tree in many places far beyond its native range.[4]
