Silly question but what would it look like if you cut the tree? Would it have so many rings that it's essentially a solid color? Do trees stop growing rings at a certain point?

This type of spruce produces needles instead of rings. So there are 9,000+ needles on the tree, and they add on a hundred or so years to account for people picking them off in passing.
