	Biogeography of Douglas-Fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii)
		Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) is a clear, straight-trunked tree, with a spire-like crown, and the capacity to grow over 300 feet tall.
		The seasonal growth of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) begins during the spring (usually April) with the onset of vegetative bud growth.
		During the post-glacial period Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) emerged as a dominant element in the coniferous forests of western North America (Hermann 1985).

	Long-lived species in Pseudotsuga-Tsuga forest
		We are interested in two species: Pseudotsuga menziesii which is generally the longest lived species in the Pseudotsuga-Tsuga forest type, and Thuja plicata which is known to live for over 1200 years.
		Here we outline our research into how Pseudotsuga menziesii manages to live so long, and some aspects of crown development in Thuja plicata that contribute to its ability to live and growth through shaded regions of the canopy.
		menziesii acclimate to the low-light environment of the late-successional canopy although the species is a pioneer.

	Pseudotsuga description
		The genus was first described by Carrière with the grand Douglas-fir of North America, Pseudotsuga menziesii, as the type species (it had formerly been placed in Pinus and Abies).
		Some 22 species and 3 varieties have been described, but many of these were discriminated by Flous (1937) on the basis of subtle distinctions in leaf anatomy and largely have not been upheld (Farjon 1990).
		menziesii is one of commonest trees in western North America, a serious weed in New Zealand, and easily found in most of the rest of the world's temperate terrestrial climate zones.

	Paghat's Garden: Pseudotsuga menziesii var menziesii
		Pseudotsuga menziesii var menziesii, by far the largest pine family tree, grows to 300 feet or taller & can live for a thousand years or longer.
		A slightly smaller form, the Inland Douglas-fir, aka Rocky Mountain Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii var glauca), has bluer needles & can grow higher on mountains than is generally the case with the coastal Douglas-fir.
		When grown as a garden tree in the midwest, it tends to remain stunted at a manageable size, but is also susceptible to pests, though exceedingly hardy in its native range where it experiences wet autumns & mild winters & dry summers.
