A unique twist on a classic evergreen, Spreading Colorado Blue Spruce forms a low, flowing carpet of striking blue foliage instead of growing tall like traditional spruce trees. Its silvery-blue needles create year-round color, while the spreading, cascading branches add movement and texture—perfect for softening walls, covering slopes, or filling open spaces with something truly eye-catching.
- Beautiful silvery-blue evergreen foliage year-round
- Low-growing, spreading habit perfect for groundcover
- Ideal for slopes, rock gardens, and cascading over walls
- Extremely cold hardy and long-lived
- Drought tolerant and deer resistant once established
Spreading Colorado Blue Spruce thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, adapting to a wide range of conditions as long as it isn’t left in standing water. It typically grows 1 to 2 feet tall and can spread 6 to 10 feet wide over time, making it an excellent choice for broad coverage in the landscape. Once established, it requires minimal care beyond occasional watering during extended dry periods and light pruning if shaping is needed.
