Wikipedia Abstract

Picea glehnii, the Sakhalin spruce' or Glehn’s spruce, is a species of conifer in the Pinaceae family. It was named after a Russian botanist, taxonomist, Sakhalin and Amur river regions explorer, geographer and hydrographer Peter von Glehn (1835—1876), the person who was the first to describe this conifer. In Japan people call this tree アカエゾマツ, which means “red spruce”.
