Picea glauca 'Conica'

Dwarf White Spruce, Dwarf Alberta Spruce, Picea glauca albertiana 'Conica'

Tall, stiff-needled, pyramidal trees, spruces grow in almost any soil. Use the larger types in park or landscape plantings. The slower-growing species are better in the garden. Planted close together, their dense foliage makes an excellent windbreak. Spruces lose their lower branches fairly early in life, and their crowns thin as they age. The pendent cones grow year-round. Easily transplanted.

This dwarf has longer leaves and smaller cones than species. It grows slowly to 7 feet in 35 years so it makes an excellent container plant, long-lived Christmas tree, or small formal pyramidal tree.
