Picea abies 'Pusch'
Picea abies 'Pusch', commonly known as Norway spruce 'Pusch', is a highly decorative dwarf conifer recognized for its compact silhouette and colorful young cones that appear in spring. This variety forms a small, dense, rounded shrub that fits perfectly into rock gardens, dwarf conifer beds, and alpine gardens. Its short, dark green needles densely cover the branches, creating a fine and even texture. In spring, numerous purplish-red young cones appear at the tips of the branches, contrasting beautifully with the foliage and providing unique ornamental interest. These cones then turn light brown upon maturity. Thanks to its slow growth and great hardiness, this spruce is ideal for small gardens and cold climates, provided it is planted in full sun in well-drained soil.
