A Spruce with Gorgeous Color
Most spruce trees tower over everything — but the Baby Blue offers a more manageable growth habit while still delivering the classic shape and vibrant color of the beloved Colorado Blue Spruce. Reaching a mature height of around 25 feet, this cultivar is ideal for anyone who wants the beauty of a spruce without the overwhelming height of traditional varieties.
Gardeners appreciate the Baby Blue Spruce for its versatile form. Its balanced proportions make it an excellent choice for borders and walkways, and it shines equally well when planted in groups for a striking hedge or showcased as a standalone focal point.
The Baby Blue’s appeal goes beyond its structure — its signature silvery-blue hue sets it apart from other evergreens. With a naturally uniform pyramidal shape and dense branching, it maintains a full, elegant appearance without the need for pruning.
This spruce is as tough as it is attractive. Exceptionally hardy, it stands up to extreme cold, high winds, snow, and even salt exposure. Once established, it’s drought-tolerant and unfazed by pests or deer. Adaptable and low-maintenance, it brings year-round beauty with minimal effort.
If you’ve been dreaming of adding a spruce to your landscape, the Baby Blue Spruce delivers stunning color, durability, and timeless form. Order yours now.
Planting & Care
Planting: Choose a spot that grows in full sun to partial shade. The tree thrives in any well-draining soil type. Ideally, you want to plant your Baby Blue Spruce in spring or fall.
Watering: After planting, water your tree a few times a week for the first two to three months. Though an established spruce is drought-tolerant, it is healthier and faster growing if you water it during dry periods of the year.
Fertilizing: You can add a slow-release fertilizer when planting and in the spring to ensure your tree is healthy. However, never use horticultural oil on your spruce.
