Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) against snowy forest, Bear River Range, Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest, Utah, USA
Douglas fir, with the scientific name Pseudotsuga menziesii, is an evergreen conifer species native to western North America. The common name honors David Douglas, a Scottish botanist and collector who first reported the extraordinary nature and potential of the species. Extant coast Douglas fir trees 60-75 m (197-246 ft) or more in height and 1.5-2 m (4.9-6.6 ft) in diameter are common in old growth stands, and maximum heights of 100-120 m (330-390 ft) and diameters up to 4.5-6 m (15-20 ft) have been documented. The rooting habit of coast Douglas fir is not particularly deep, with the roots tending to be shallower than those of same-aged ponderosa pine, sugar pine, or California incense-cedar, though deeper than Sitka spruce
