Description
The Picea glauca 'Perfecta', also known as the white spruce, is a compact, slow-growing conifer that is ideal for small gardens, terraces or balconies. This variety remains beautifully green in the winter and retains its dense, conical shape all year round.
Features:
Pot size : P15 (round pot)
Height: 35-40 cm (excluding pot)
The Picea glauca is low-maintenance and slow-growing, so pruning is rarely necessary.
This conifer thrives in both full sun and light shade and is resistant to cold and wind, making it also suitable for Dutch winters.
Use : This conifer is ideal for use in borders, rockeries or as a solitary in a pot on the terrace. Its compact size makes it easy to place in smaller gardens or urban environments.
Maintenance tips:
Water the plant regularly, especially during dry periods, but ensure that the soil is well-draining to prevent root rot.
Although this conifer is winter hardy, a layer of mulch can help protect the roots from extreme frost.
Combinations: The Picea glauca 'Perfecta' looks great next to other evergreen plants such as Juniperus chinensis Stricta or Chamaecyparis lawsoniana 'Ellwoodii', which together form a beautiful winter planting.
This conifer is an ideal choice for those looking for an evergreen, decorative plant that remains attractive all year round.
