Summary

Tall, long-lived forest trees with rough-barked trunks, mostly developing a broad-crowned habit with age, with widely spreading flattened branch systems, giving mature trees a particularly stately and majestic habit with age. They are distinguished from Picea by the presence of short shoots with clustered leaves, and female cones which are erect and never pendulous at maturity.
