Highlights

  • Compact size: As its name suggests, this evergreen conifer has a dwarf habit, making it a great choice for small gardens or container plantings.
  • Attractive shape: The Dwarf Alberta Spruce has a pyramidal shape with dense, bright green foliage that retains its colour throughout the year. It adds a beautiful accent to any landscape.
  • Low maintenance: This tree is easy to care for, requiring little to no pruning or shaping. It is also fairly pest and disease resistant, making it a hassle-free addition to any garden.

Care Guide

  • Watering: The Dwarf Alberta Spruce prefers consistently moist soil, but it's important not to overwater it. Water deeply when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch, and avoid letting the soil dry out completely.
  • Maintenance: The Dwarf Alberta Spruce is a slow-growing plant, and generally doesn't require much maintenance. Monitor the plant for pests and diseases, and treat as necessary.
  • Pruning: Late fall or winter is the best time to prune the Dwarf Alberta Spruce. Lightly prune back the new growth to maintain the tree's shape and size. Avoid pruning more than 1/3 of the tree's total foliage in a single year, as this can stress the plant.
  • (Optional):Fertilizer: The Dwarf Alberta Spruce doesn't require a lot of fertilizer, but a slow-release, balanced fertilizer can be applied in early spring. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for application rates. Avoid fertilizing the plant later in the growing season, as this can stimulate new growth that may not have time to harden off before winter.

Planting Instructions

Planting a trees or plants is easy! First, begin by digging a hole that's twice as wide as the root ball and just as deep. Place the tree or plant in the hole and add some bonemeal fertilizer. Backfill with fresh soil if needed and water thoroughly. Water regularly until roots are established to keep the plant healthy. Enjoy your new tree or plant!
