The Green Knight Oriental Spruce is a wonderful alternative to the boring and dull Norway spruce. It has bright-green, glossy needles and an elegant, graceful pyramidal form, becoming a bold specimen with layers of almost horizontal branches. This classic form is retained for many years, and mature trees still have a dense, pyramidal form with low limbs. Growing to about 12 feet tall, and ultimately double that or more, allow enough room for it when planting. Use it as a lawn specimen, screening, or as a row to mark a property line.
- Elegant, pyramidal upright evergreen tree
- Glossy green needles create a bright look
- Far superior to Norway spruce
- Beautiful lawn specimen or screen
- Easy to grow and vigorous
Full sun is best for the Green Knight Oriental Spruce, allowing it to retain the low branches for decades. Plant it in any well-drained soil, and water young trees regularly. Older trees have good drought resistance to ordinary summer dryness. Pests or diseases are very uncommon, and this is an easy, trouble-free tree to grow. Watch that it keep just one single leading shoot, to prevent future splitting, and don’t plant beneath overhead wires.
