Description
Add a unique seasonal twist to your garden with the Spring Gold Colorado Blue Spruce (Picea pungens 'Niemetz'), a compact pyramidal conifer that puts on a show each spring with creamy white new growth that gradually deepens to a rich steel blue. This dwarf evergreen is ideal for foundation plantings, borders, or as a stand-alone accent tree in any well-designed landscape.
Slow-growing and exceptionally hardy, Spring Gold maintains a refined pyramidal shape, reaching about 10 feet tall and 8 feet wide at maturity. Its colorful foliage and rough gray bark provide multi-season interest, while its low-maintenance, deer-resistant nature makes it a reliable choice for gardeners in Zones 2 to 8. Thriving in full sun and well-drained soil, this blue spruce is an excellent choice for both formal and naturalistic settings.
Each plant comes in a #6 (6 gallon) growers container. The image shown represents an example of what you may receive. Please note that the height, shape, and fullness of each plant may vary due to natural growth patterns. Rest assured, we will select the healthiest and most vibrant plant for you.
