Norway Spruce

Iseli Fastigiate Blue Spruce is perfect if you are looking for colour all year. A cultivar of the Blue Spruce, it is also known as the Columnar Colorado Blue Spruce. The Iseli Fastigiate Blue Spruce is one of the more distinctive evergreens. Its foliage is blueish in the spring and blue/green in the winter. Best used as an accent tree, the Blue Spruce has a narrowly upright and columnar form with upwards forking branches.

Norway Spruce is a large, openly branched evergreen recognized by its drooping branchlets and large cones. This hardy, adaptable tree thrives in moist conditions, but will grow in clay or sandy soils.

Norway Spruce is the fastest growing spruce we carry but it's not as dense as other spruce trees.

It is sometimes used as a Christmas tree.
