Description

A classic evergreen for formal landscapes and small gardens. The Dwarf Alberta Spruce (Picea glauca ‘Conica’) is one of the most popular compact evergreens in American landscapes. With its dense, pyramidal growth habit and rich green needles, this dwarf spruce adds structure, elegance, and year-round beauty to gardens of any size. Its naturally symmetrical shape makes it a favorite for formal gardens, foundation plantings, and container displays. Perfect for entryways, patios, and containers. Growing just 8–10 feet tall and 4–5 feet wide over many years, Dwarf Alberta Spruce is slow-growing and ideal for tight spaces, borders, or flanking walkways. Many homeowners plant it in urns or decorative pots at front doors or patios, where its evergreen foliage provides a welcoming, classic look all year long. Unlike fast-growing shrubs, it won’t quickly outgrow its spot, making it a reliable long-term choice. Cold-hardy and adaptable. Native to northern climates, Dwarf Alberta Spruce is cold-hardy to USDA Zone 2 and thrives as far south as Zone 7. It performs best in full sun and well-drained soil, tolerating harsh winters without losing its structure or evergreen color. Its durability makes it one of the best low-maintenance compact evergreens for a wide range of climates. Low-maintenance elegance for decades to come. Once established, Dwarf Alberta Spruce requires very little care—only occasional watering during dry periods and light pruning if desired. Its slow growth rate (just a few inches per year) ensures it will hold its neat, conical shape without constant trimming. If you’re looking for a versatile evergreen shrub with timeless appeal, the Dwarf Alberta Spruce is one of the best investments you can make for your landscape.
