歐洲雲杉(學名:Picea abies、Norway spruce、European spruce),或譯作挪威雲杉,是一種大型常綠針葉樹,高達35-55公尺,樹幹直徑可達 1-1.5 公尺。2008年,一株由瑞典于默奧大學科學家在瑞典達拉納省境內的歐洲雲杉Old Tjikko經碳-14定年法後核實其樹齡高達9550歲,打破了一直以來在美國加利福尼亞州白山找到的一株刺果松4700歲的紀錄足足一倍有多,所以是目前世界上已知寿命最长的植物之一和世界上已知最長壽生物之一。

Article

Picea abies, the Norway spruce, Norway fir or European spruce, is a species of spruce native to Northern, Central and Eastern Europe.

It has branchlets that typically hang downwards, and the longest cones of any spruce, 9–17 cm long. It is very closely related to the Siberian spruce (Picea obovata), which replaces it east of the Ural Mountains, and with which it hybridises freely. The Norway spruce has a wide distribution, being planted for its wood, and is the species used as a Christmas tree in several countries around the world. It was the first gymnosperm to have its genome sequenced. The Latin specific epithet abies means "like Abies, Fir tree".
