Picea glauca 'Conica', Spiral (CG)

A delightful evergreen conifer with a compact, spiral-shaped form, this plant exhibits a symmetrical and tidy habit that adds architectural interest to any landscape. It thrives in USDA hardiness zones 3-8 and prefers temperate climates with recommended temperatures between -40°F to 90°F. This slow-growing cultivar has no significant fall color changes, maintaining its vibrant green foliage year-round. It does not produce flowers or notable fruit, focusing instead on its strikingly dense needles. The plant performs best in well-drained, moderately fertile soil and requires full to partial sunlight for optimal growth. Reaching a mature height of 5 to 7 feet with a graceful spiral structure, it is relatively deer-resistant, making it a low-maintenance and pest-tolerant addition to gardens. Its compact and elegant form works well in formal landscapes, container planting, or as a striking focal point in smaller garden spaces.
