Description
Norway Spruce – Little Gem (Picea abies 'Little Gem') is a delightful dwarf conifer that brings structure and evergreen charm to even the smallest garden spaces. With its compact, rounded form and dense, rich green foliage, Little Gem is perfect for rock gardens, small-scale landscapes, or as a year-round accent in beds and borders. In spring, new lime green growth emerges, creating a soft contrast against the deeper mature needles and adding a burst of fresh color to the garden.
Reaching just 12 inches tall and 24 inches wide at maturity, this low-growing spruce thrives in full sun to partial shade and adapts well to a range of well-draining soils. Hardy in zones 3 to 8 and tolerant of urban pollution, Little Gem is both low-maintenance and resilient. Its evergreen foliage provides four-season interest, making it a standout choice for gardeners looking to add texture, structure, and lasting greenery to compact spaces.
