Dwarf Alberta Spruce 1 Live Evergreen Tree, 3 Gallon Pot – Picea glauca ‘Conica’

Dwarf Alberta Spruce (Picea glauca ‘Conica’) is a slow-growing evergreen conifer admired for its naturally symmetrical, upright conical shape and dense, finely textured foliage. This compact selection of white spruce produces soft-looking, light green new growth that matures to a deeper green. Its classic pyramidal appearance makes it suitable for foundation plantings, formal gardens, entryway landscapes, and decorative outdoor containers.

The closely spaced branches of Dwarf Alberta Spruce create a dense, uniform silhouette that provides year-round ornamental interest. Its short needles and naturally compact branching habit give the plant a refined appearance without requiring frequent pruning. The evergreen can also be lightly shaped for formal landscape designs, although its naturally conical form generally requires little maintenance.

Dwarf Alberta Spruce performs best in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-drained soil with moderate, consistent moisture. It is particularly well suited to cooler climates and benefits from good air circulation and protection from excessive heat. Its slow growth rate, evergreen foliage, and architectural shape make it an attractive choice for specimen plantings, symmetrical landscape arrangements, and outdoor container displays.
