The Washington State tree, Western Hemlock grows ultimately to over 200 feet. Western Hemlock is unmistakable among local evergreens for its ''nodding'' top, narrow crown, and graceful downward sweep of large limbs on mature trees.
In comparison to other conifers in our region, Western Hemlock's cones are very small — less than an inch.
Best started in light to deep shade, and over time it will tower above smaller plants around it.
