Canadian Hemlock
Tsuga Canadensis
One of the more shade-tolerant evergreens, the eastern hemlock has many uses as a specimen, sheared as a hedge or planted for screening. Native to the eastern United States, the hemlock resembles a large Christmas tree with its broadly pyramidal, pendulous branches and fine, dark-green needles on widely spaced branches that give it a delicate, lacy feel. The tree even has abundant brown cones that hang from branches like small ornaments.
