A curious fact is the extreme versatility or adaptability of the three 
varieties of Colorado Spruce described above. Native to the higher 
hills and the mountainsides of the West, they are also at home along 
our eastern seashore. Dry air, wet air, salty air — the Colorado 
Spruces enjoy them all. They thrive in windswept locations and in 
dry soils, yet flourish in all soils except the very wet.
