A few more from our drive to the Shei-Pa National Park in Taiwan.

It's interesting to hear that some forum members are growing these conifers.

I expect they might not do well in Colorado.

    Yep, the ones labelled Picea are P. morrisonicola, and the ones labelled hemlock ate Tsuga chinensis var. formosana (and ditto the trees in "A few landscape shots"). The Abies is A. kawakamii, and the "Cones on a five needle pine" is Pinus armandii var. mastersiana.

    Very nice pics! Wish I'd been there too ;-)
