      Thank you for this video Adam ! I love trees, and thanks to you, I’m learning more about them. The white pine is also one of my favorites. I love the bark, the leaves, but most of all the smell. I know that sounds odd but the white pine has such a wonderful smell and I could sit with them all day. I’m looking forward to your course on trees, and I am sure I will learn so much about my tree friends in this course as I have on all your other courses. Thank you for taking the time to compile all the information featured on your courses ! I hope others will sign up for them because they offer so much information that can not be found anywhere in other courses. Your courses are so interesting and keep one’s attention unlike others who, well, are boring and have a tendency to drone on and on, never getting to what’s important. Again, thank you Adam, for all the work you put into your videos and courses !

    Excellent video. I used to work for a conifer specialist when a teenager, but I'd lost the knack of identification decades ago - as I moved through different fields of horticulture.
    Only in recent years, when I started to grow different conifers from seed, and birds joyously pulled all the labels out of the seed trays, did I find that it's becoming more necessary to know what on Earth that 25ft tree is in my garden.
    The only seed variety I could identify on sight was a rare New Mexican Fir (the seeds costing a - ahem - packet). The others were a bunch of unknowns until now, where I can at least make a start by identifying the family.
    Thank you!

    Thank you, Adam. You're always a fountain of outdoor wisdom and I appreciate all that you do. I really regret missing a visit you made to Michigan while I was in the MMHC.
    This video is very applicable to my hunting grounds around Holly where until now i've relied heavily upon the tree and limb shapes to distinguish the finer details to ID one conifer from another. This is really going to help me run my mouth even more about the land as I walk around with friends and family 😆

But for me it's time to push my self to the next level, and really understanding more of the details of what i'm looking at. it will make me a better arborist !

    Thank you. I grew up in Forks, WA, and it seems like all of us knew how to especiate evergreens, which we had plenty of. Since then, I noticed that other folks tend to call all evergreens pine trees.
    "It's on the limb of that pine tree."
    "Huh? I only see Doug Firs. Where is the pine?"
    This video should be mandatory viewing in schools.

    Thanks Adam! I will definitely come back to this video. I'm confident telling the difference between pine and larch but when it comes to fir, spruce and hemlock I get stuck and haven't spent much time trying to get past that. This video has given me a real sense of hope and inspiration. Those tips about the leaf shapes are particularly useful 💚 I of course want to delve in and get to know them all beyond the genus too!

    The Douglas fir (in central Oregon coast) has small leaf bases like the spruce in this video. It also does not exhibit the seed cone behavior you mentioned. It's cones are very similar to the spruce as well. The leaves are flat though, and they do show the white lines very faintly.

    Thanks for this video, very concise and informative! I believe there are at least a couple of genus that were missing: Cedrus and Pseudotsuga, which in my understanding are also conifers but with slight differences from the rest. It’ll be great if you can make another video explaining those as well. Thanks!

    I am quite fond of my local conifer, the Douglas firs (Pseudotsuga). They are often left out, but they can be hard to tell apart from other trees. They are a weird middle child tree. They are not firs, more closely related to Larchs. But they look like a cross between a fir and hemlock.
