Colorado Spruce 'Glauca Globosa'

Colorado Spruce Glauca Globosa (Picea pungens 'Glauca Globosa') on a 60-70 cm standard is one of the most popular choices for modern landscape design. It looks like a neat blue globe on a stem, which makes it an ideal accent for small gardens, rockeries or containers.

Here are the main characteristics and care tips for such a beauty:

Main characteristics

• Colour: A rich silvery-blue, which is retained throughout the year.
• Form: On a standard it usually has a globe-shaped or slightly flattened crown.
• Height: Since this is a standard form, the 'stem' itself will no longer grow (it will remain 60-70 cm); only the blue crown will increase in volume.
• Frost resistance: Very high (withstands down to -30°C and below), overwinters beautifully throughout Ukraine.
