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.

Hello everyone, I need to cover a relatively large area (approximately 25 square meters) with wood chips; it is the floor of a playground. There's currently grass growing there. Is it possible to cover the lawn directly with weed control fabric and place the wood chips on top, or is it absolutely necessary to cut…
Hello everyone! We are currently planning a trip to Canada for next year, this time to the beautiful north. We will arrive in Quebec on the morning of October 5th or 6th, 2023, on the Queen Mary 2 and would like to spend about 8-10 days getting to know as much of the nature and…
Hey guys, I just repotted my tomato seedlings. Before repotting, both looked strong. Since repotting, both have suddenly started drooping. I moistened the soil slightly and moved the plants into the shade, as I've heard that the plants get very stressed when repotted and need shade. I'm still scared. Can anyone help me? I've been…
I stumbled across the remains of an animal while mushroom picking, and I'm curious to know what kind. Thanks for the replies.

I repotted my Alocasia zebrina from soil to Seramis substrate. Since then, its leaves have drooped, and the edges are turning yellow and brown. Overwatering isn't really an option. I watered it very carefully.
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 π
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 π
Yes quite clearly Douglasie Pseudotsuga menziesii
