Picea pungens Glauca is native to Canada and can withstand temperatures as low as -35°C. At the age of ten, it is about 2 metres high. As an adult, it reaches 12 to 15 metres in height and spreads over 6 metres. Particularly decorative, the Blue spruce is immediately recognizable by its beautiful glaucous needles and its irregular pyramidal shape. It has smooth greyish-brown bark, which naturally peels over the years to reveal the salmon-pink bark beneath. Picea pungens Glauca flowers in May – June. It then produces reddish-brown cones 3-8 cm long, which mature in two years.
Blue spruce thrives in all soils, provided they are well drained and not too dry. It is a perfect variety to decorate large spaces and is best planted in isolation and in a sunny position.
