“The full moon rises. The fog clings to the lowest branches of the spruce trees.”
– Garth Stein, The Art of Racing in the Rain
“Native people also place great sacred value in the spruce. The First Nations people of Southern Canada, for instance, call it the Peace Tree and believe it teaches the values of cooperation, joy, and tranquility, and that it solidifies connections between humans and the heavens.”
– Christopher Cumo, Encyclopedia of Cultivated Plants: From Acacia to Zinnia
