Can anyone identify the tree?
I think it's a Douglas fir, but I'm not sure. The owner said the tree is from Canada. I'd like to make tea from the needles and want to be sure they're edible.

I'm looking for suitable plants for my large covered balcony, 120 to 130 cm tall, that can withstand the summer heat well, but can stay in pots during the winter. (Wrapping is fine.) … and which are light, otherwise they would make the room behind them too dark. Some kind of white-variegated plant. I have…
Hello, The weather isn't exactly great and I would like to redesign the overgrown garden. Can you give me some examples of weather- dependent and weather- independent gardening tasks? Because I don't want to put up the new fence in very cold temperatures either. Thank you and best regards
How long does it take for a walnut tree to grow to full size?
My bonsai always stands in the same spot, with plenty of light but no direct sunlight. It's constantly losing leaves, even though new ones are growing. I haven't noticed any pests. You can't even touch it, and it'll fall immediately. I hope someone can help.
The pictures are unfortunately very small and therefore unsharp when zooming…
Safest feature for Douglass, if you don’t know the pins with the “slangings” that look out between the sheds.

= if your tree has other cones, then don’t eat Douglas…
… and why you make tea (old) needles…
Thank you. I’ve already read that you make the tea from the peaks in spring/summer, but you can also hear it with the needles in winter. Isn’t he delicious or edible?
Jep these are definitely Douglas(pins)
The bark has (still….) not the typical cracks, but never the “resin-crowded” bark of young Douglas…
Fresh needles and drives have fewer resins and tanning agents…
…prob it, but I can think more delicious teas…
Thank you very much
Thank you for the information and your help!
When you brush it with your hand, a Douglas has soft needles – not as hard as spruce.
If you wrap a needle and smell it, it smells like oranges, at least for me.
(A Douglas as a Christmas tree does not needle like a spruce).
You might get better answers here. But I’m pretty sure it’s not Douglas.
Are there pine pegs? You can usually see tree species well.
Thank you
Yeah, it’s a pine pin. The needles smell kind of fruity when you rub them, so I thought of a Douglas
Yeah, Douglass actually have a special, distinctive smell. I think it’s a beautiful smell. Some people say he stinks.
Enter a picture of the pegs (a good/sharp/zoomable please…)
Great thanks for your help 🙂
I saw the picture of the cones. This is clearly a Douglas.
And they smell very good I find
I’ll put a picture in this afternoon.
There are several free plant detection apps. You should try. I’m using Plantnet. Often the determination is not quite simple, but I have had very good experiences with the app.
Thank you, let me try 🙂
Yes quite clearly Douglasie Pseudotsuga menziesii
