This Spruce is anchored with a deep root system, protecting it from mild drought and high winds.<\/p>\n<p>The needles of Picea pungens Glauca are four-sided and can be quite sharp (&#8220;pungens&#8221; is Latin for &#8220;sharp&#8221;), and needle color varies from silvery blue to greenish blue. The Glauca variety (which we sell), tend to have more blueish and silvery needles. About 60% develop the famous &#8220;blue&#8221; color, while the rest will remain more greenish. It is a genetic trait which does not reveal itself for another few years.<\/p>\n<p>Colorados are very hardy, dense, and grow at an average rate for an evergreen. It&#8217;s cones are anywhere from 2 to 4 inches long and feature a brown chestnut color. It requires little pruning to maintain its shape, and retains its needles better than almost any spruce (handy when removing it from your home after Christmas).<\/p>\n<div align=\"left\">\n<p>Colorado Spruce grow from Kentucky north (but can do well in lower states such as New Mexico and Arizona if planted at elevations above 5,000 feet) and east of Idaho.
