This study was carried out in order to evaluate the prospect of Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) as an economic forest tree species in Korea. The growth performances of Norway spruce introduced from Germany grown at four locations in southern part of Korea were investigated. But, unfortunately, seed sources of the species are not known in detail. The results obtained are as follows ; 1. The growth of Norway spruce at the age of 45 in Korea was fairly good compared to that of native fir(Abies holophylla Max.) which is known as fast growing conifer in Korea. As an average Norway spruce outgrew native Abies holaphylla 30 to 82 percents in volume growth. But, the growth of Norway spruce was significantly different in various micro sites even at the same plantation. 2. Growth performance was correlated with climate and site conditions of the plantations. .Among the site conditions, slope, sand and clay contents in soil, and annual mean temperature or mean temperature of March to October were negatively correlated with volume growth, while altitude, relative humidity, organic matter contents, total nitrogen contents, available phosphorus correlated with volume growth. 3. It is suggested that Norway spruce will grow well, particularly, in humid site or valley of high mountains in Korea. 4. The juvenile-mature correlation coefficients are calculated from the stem analysis data. A11 possible correlation coefficients were obtained between the 5-year age class and corresponding growth increment of diameter, height, and volume of Norway spruce. The correlation coefficients between age classes and diameter growth were 0.15 and to 0.19 between age classes and volume growth were 0.01 to 0.99 on age classes depending and in general the values are lower those than values concerned with height growth. Estimated correlation coefficients of height growth was 0.51 between age 5 and 45, and 0.63 between age 10 and 45.
