Picea pungens 'Dietz Prostrate' Size:1 gal size 6" tall

Picea pungens 'Dietz Prostrate' Size:1 gal size 6" tallSpectacular ground hugging and trailing Colorado blue spruce. This broom will rival Picea p. 'Glauca Procumbens', as it stays even lower. It can be planted to cascade over and down rock walls, or large boulders for a dramatic landscape effect. The silvery blue foliage can be pruned lightly if desired to keep it from growing beyond its preferred size. Low maintenance, and deer resistant. Hard to zone 4.

Because of the 'yak' x proteoides parentage the foliage is quite a lovely shiny dark-green with tan indumentum on the undersides of the leaves

The parents used for all of the Gleenwood hybrids were Kurumes
