Picea pungens 'Moonstone'
Picea pungens 'Moonstone', also known as 'Moonstone' Blue Spruce, is a particularly decorative dwarf conifer prized for the luminous color of its foliage and its compact habit. This variety forms a small, dense, rounded shrub that fits perfectly into rockeries, dwarf conifer beds, and alpine gardens. Its stiff needles have a very light silver-blue hue that reflects light and creates an almost frosted effect in the garden, hence its name, which evokes the moonstone. This coloration remains attractive all year round and provides a remarkable contrast with darker green foliage. Thanks to its slow growth and naturally regular silhouette, this spruce maintains its compact shape for a long time without needing pruning. Very hardy, it prefers full sun locations and well-drained soil.
