Last one. :o)  I have seen these trees here and there - usually in the mountains.  PlantNet identifies this as a Douglas Fir.  Your picture with the cones and flowers was fantastic - up close pictures with flowers and fruit are particularly helpful with plant ID apps.  When "keying" out plants and trees, flowers/fruits and often essential in identification.

I hope this helps you, and that you enjoy learning about plant and tree species as much as I do.

Thanks for contacting us.
