Tsuga mertensiana (Mountain Hemlock) 
This magnificent conifer is native of the Cascade mountains of western 
United States and Canada. In its natural habitat it is seldom found below 
an elevation of 3000 feet except in the more northern areas and braves the 
cold to timber line. In the loftier situations it becomes very slender and alpine 
in habit of growth and often verges into a pleasing blue. While native to 
the colder, more rugged areas, it thrives at the lower levels. Lovely either in 
groups or as specimen trees. The hemlocks as a whole are a most beautiful 
group of evergreens but the Mountain Hemlock may be said to be the hand- 
somest of them all and is usually considered to be the West’s most beautiful 
alpine conifer.
