White spruce
FamilyPinaceae
Picea glauca is a classic ornamental conifer, better known as white spruce, appreciated for its bluish-green to light green evergreen foliage that brings an elegant and permanent structure to beds, hedges, borders, or large gardens. Its well-defined pyramidal silhouette makes it an excellent choice as a shade tree, specimen, or structural element in residential or public landscapes, while creating a dense and luminous green canvas regardless of the season. Very hardy, this tree tolerates a wide variety of well-drained soils and prefers a sunny to partial shade exposure, allowing it to thrive without particular requirements, even in cold climates, offering a majestic presence all year round.
