  • Description

  • Notes

This Colorado spruce cultivar tends to be shorter than the species, growing about 6 to 8 inches per year once established, averaging 10 to 15 feet tall and 6 to 10 feet wide after 20 years. It has blue needles and a dense branching habit. Useful as an accent in the shrub border.
