Picea Engelmanni, one of the gems of Colorado, resembles P. Alba more than it does its near neighbor P. Pungens, being of finer foliage and not as stiff branched as the latter. It is one of the few conifers that will stand the extreme cold of St. Petersburg, Russia; but on our western prairies it soon loses its lower branches, as it seems to be unable to withstand the hot and drying winds of that section in late sum mer and early autumn. In the eastern states, however, it does not have this fault, as the cooler and more humid air seems to better agree with it.
