Black spruce get their name from the dark-colored bark and needles of the tree, which are typically a deep green to almost black hue. The term "spruce" refers to their classification within the Picea genus, which includes various species of spruce trees. The "black" descriptor helps distinguish this species from other spruces that may have lighter-colored foliage or bark. Additionally, the tree's habitat in wet, acidic soils contributes to its distinct appearance.
A spruce tree is a coniferous evergreen (pine needles and cones) and most maple trees are deciduous (leaves fall off).
No, the spruce tree was not named after Richard Spruce. The name "spruce" is derived from the Old French term "Pruce," which referred to products from Prussia, where the trees were originally imported. Richard Spruce was a 19th-century botanist known for his work on the classification of plants, but he is not the namesake of the spruce tree.
