Baby Blue Blue Spruce Baby Blue Spruce 5 Gal

A shimmering blue evergreen tree, with a dense habit, full stout branches, and elegant silvery-blue needles, a tree of great beauty and color which is retained throughout the year; extremely hardy and rugged.

Planting & Growing

Baby Blue Blue Spruce will grow to be about 50 feet tall at maturity, with a spread of 25 feet. It has a low canopy, and should not be planted underneath power lines. It grows at a medium rate, and under ideal conditions can be expected to live for 80 years or more.

This tree should only be grown in full sunlight. It is very adaptable to both dry and moist growing conditions, but will not tolerate any standing water. It is considered to be drought-tolerant, and thus makes an ideal choice for xeriscaping or the moisture-conserving landscape. It is not particular as to soil type or pH, and is able to handle environmental salt. It is highly tolerant of urban pollution and will even thrive in inner city environments. This is a selection of a native North American species.

Great Pick for Live Christmas Tree!

Dense symmetrical habit and bright blue color makes it a winner in the landscape, and stiff branches hold ornaments well. Slow growing enough to repot for Christmas tree use for another year, but fast enough to be a tree within a generation.
