Picea pungens "Baby blue"

Its a beautiful colour !

Thank you Amy.

great colour, I had another variety called Koster and at the time I didnt realise they could have spider mites and all the needles dropped off and after that just never looked good(out it came )

Yours is a new variety I havnt seen before

added to favorites

Thank you Gg. Sorry about your Koster. I love that variety. Narrow, pyramidal conifer. I do see it in the gardens here but never in Garden centers. I would love to have one. I think Picea Pungens "Baby Blue" is originating from Canadian grower. There is one called "Baby Blue Eyes" in US but do not know how they differ.

Most Spruce trees are very slow growing, but that's perfect for a small garden and the color is outstanding; especially against the white snow. I would decorate it with small white Christmas lights.

Bathgate, good idea but:
1.) there is not snow on Vancouver Island,
2.) the little tree is too far from the house
3.) We are in Mexico over winter.

But you are right, I can use solar (?) to light the white Christmas lights and who cares about Christmas and snow (LOL). It would look pretty even in July.

lol! You won this argument.

LOL Bathgate. I will try the solar lights next year....Christmas in July :-) It will look pretty.
Do you put Christmas lights on your little spruce?

lol you remember. It's just getting big enough to support lights. Maybe I'll give it some solar lights this year. It's been through a lot. Good idea!

Looking forward to see it.

Me too. See what you did. :)
