Hi Quillib

Quoting:Here's a photo of the straight species-


Those are both also subsp. glauca

Here's subsp. menziesii; note the green foliage with straighter (less upswept) needles, and straight cone bracts. The bark (not really visible here) is also very different.

Personally, I think the two are better treated as distinct species, but that doesn't appear to be a very popular classification.
