Gran: The Spruce tree

Picea abies, commonly known as the Norway spruce, is the economically most valuable tree species in Norway. It is widely planted for its wood, and is the species used as the main Christmas tree in several cities around the world. It was the first gymnosperm to have its genome sequenced, and one clone has been measured as 9,560 years old. 

 

Picea abies: Histoire des plantes

Norway spruce / Gran / Såtegran is a large, fast-growing evergreen coniferous tree growing 35–55 m tall and with a trunk diameter of 1 to 1.5 m. It can grow fast when young, up to 1m per year for the first 25 years under good conditions but becomes slower once over 20 m tall. 

It is commonly used for construction materials in building houses. Spruce is a relatively recent immigrant and has so far spread through the south-eastern part to mid-Norway.

Old Tjikko, Sweden

Old Tjikko is a 9,550 year-old Norway Spruce, located on Fulufjället Mountain of Dalarna province in Sweden. Old Tjikko originally gained fame as the "world's oldest tree." Old Tjikko is, however, a clonal tree that has regenerated new trunks, branches and roots over millennia rather than an individual tree of great age. Old Tjikko is recognized as the oldest living Picea abies and the third oldest known clonal tree.
