Colorado Blue Spruce 'Glauca Pendula'

Colorado Blue Spruce 'Glauca Pendula' (Picea pungens Glauca Pendula) — an exceptionally ornamental coniferous tree, prized for its weeping form and striking colour.

Here are the main characteristics of this cultivar:

1. Appearance

• Crown shape: Weeping (pendulous). The branches densely clothe the trunk and cascade right down to the ground. Since the tree has no pronounced leader,
• Foliage: Stiff, prickly, about 2–2.5 cm long. It has a bright silvery-blue or glaucous colour that is retained throughout the year.
• Dimensions: Grows slowly. An adult plant usually reaches 2–4 metres in height, but its form always remains individual and picturesque.
