The Dwarf Alberta Spruce is arguably the most popular coniferous shrub and for very good reasons. Firstly, without any pruning or maintenance required this compact conifer naturally attains a perfectly symmetrical pyramid form. in stark contrast to many of its evergreen relatives, the dense needles of a Dwarf Alberta Spruce are actually quite soft and fuzzy.

The Dwarf Alberta Spruce is able to withstand temperatures below minus 45°F and is also incredibly drought-tolerant, using its slow metabolism as a strength to live through the most scorching summers and harshest winters. It will eventually reach a height between 10 ft. and 12 ft. with a spread between 4 ft. and 5 ft., although it could take over 25-years for this compact shrub to reach its full growth potential. with a USDA Cold Hardiness range between 2 and 9. The Dwarf Alberta Spruce is the definition of low-maintenance, its lovely forest-green foliage naturally attains a symmetric pyramidal form and is among the most resilient shrubs grown today.
