Product Description

Fat Albert Blue Spruce

Fat Albert Spruce is so easy and shapely. This blue-needled tree matures into a strong, naturally-straight, pyramidal form. Perfect and predictable, it requires no staking or training to achieve its outstanding, formal stature. Fat Albert loves full sun for its most intense blue color all year long. It tolerates different soil types, but requires well-drained soil. The uniformity of this cultivar of Colorado Blue Spruce has allowed it to establish itself as a standard in the trade!

 

Blue Spruce Bush

Spruce (Picea) are low-maintenance and slow-growing. They are semi-dwarf and compact, so generally do not need pruning. Their needle-like foliage makes them look stately planted in landscapes or as a privacy screen. These shrubs thrive in full sun and well-drained, slightly acidic soil. Drought tolerant and cold tolerant, these evergreens are extremely hardy. Planting Spruce is a sure way to keep your winter garden looking alive!
