Blue Diamond Spruce

Regal Petticoat® Maple

This selection of Colorado Blue Spruce has intensely blue colored needles with a silver overlay that is similar to Hoopsii Spruce but with the traditional Colorado Spruce shape and texture. This spruce would make a great specimen that would give brilliant contrast to any landscape. The Blue Diamond originated Deurne, the Netherlands.

A unique cultivar found in eastern Canada. In spring, beautiful, “bird of paradise” buds are striking. In summer, the glossy green leaves have a velvety purple underside.

In the fall, the leaves turn yellow with magenta undersides, with accents of red, salmon, and orange. Great for urban or commerical settings, and superior disease resistance.

Zone 2

Starlite Crabapple Upright shape with outstanding resistance to apple scab.

Pretty white flowers in the spring. The fruit is very small and shiny, bright red in color. The fruit is retained well into the winter months and adds to this cultivar’s ornamental value.

Viewed as a great improvement to Spring Snow Crabapple.

Sester Dwarf ® Spruce A densely branched, conical shaped spruce with striking blue needles, Sester Dwarf® is a slow growing conifer discovered by Gordon Sester. This low maintenance, pint-sized version of a Colorado Blue Spruce is ideal for suburban landscapes.
