Larix sibirica

Conifers and Other Gymnosperms

Larix sibirica, the Siberian larch or Russian larch, is a frost-hardy coniferous tree native to western Russia, ranging from near the Finnish border east to the Yenisei valley in central Siberia. Where its range meets that of the Dahurian larch further east, the two species hybridize to form a cross known as Larix x czekanowskii.
