The Alberta Spruce 'Conica' (Picea glauca 'Conica') is a small (dwarf) evergreen coniferous shrub, conical in shape. It has a compact form and dense vegetation, with bright green foliage. It grows very slowly, reaching a height of 0.80 m at the age of 10 years, and 3 m at the age of 10 years. The Alberta Spruce 'Conica' performs better in areas with cold winters and cool summers, while withstanding wind, heat, cold, drought and partial shade. It is used planted both in the garden soil and in pots or planters.
► It is offered at a price determined by the particular characteristics of the conifer plant, such as the size of the pot, its height, age and shape.
