This Needlefresh Blue Spruce (Picea Pungens Glauca) is a beautiful Pot Grown Christmas Tree. Guaranteed to be a great centre-piece to any Christmas when dressed in twinkling lights and baubles. Similar to the popular Norway Spruce, the Blue Spruce is best know for its beautiful colour which varies from silvery-green to a stunning steel blue.
You must be be aware that Blue Spruce trees do have small prickly needles and therefore are not recommended for houses with small children and pets.
As this tree is planted in a pot, it can be kept indoors for decorating at Christmas and then planted outdoors in the garden to grow for years to come. Position trees well away from heat sources in the home. Keep your real tree outside for as long as possible as they will thrive better in the cold.
To replant trees outdoors after use in the home, ensure tree is watered regularly when indoors and allow it to harden off before planting. Pots may have holes in the bottom, remember to place on a dish or tray.
Although native to the Rocky Mountains, USA, the Blue Spruce has been widely introduced elsewhere and is used as an ornamental tree far beyond its origin. This species has an excellent natural shape and requires little shearing, partially leading to its popularity of being used as a Christmas tree.
