Weeping Spruce


Weeping Spruce

Even though it may grow to 40 or 50 feet after another 30 years, it will retain its slim form its entire life, a trait especially valuable to those with limited space.

Oh so wish I'd thought about height and spread of one I bought Bathgate, Cedrus Deodara, its the most gorgeous specimen but after 11 years its rapidly outgrowing its space :-( I don't want to chop it as I love it, but there will come a time, this would have been a better choice you live and learn.

That's a harsh lesson Simbad. It's very brave to cut down a tree you've been nurturing for so many years.

Must be a weeping white spruce, I have seen a lot of them and they all have that same shape. I've never seen one that size though, thanks for posting it.

I don't see many of them at all in the home garden. This one was on the grounds of NY Botanical Garden. They have many unusual trees. You are welcome.
