Picea omorika seedlings, approx 8-14″ tall<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Serbian Spruce mature to become the most beautiful ornamental spruce period, according to many in the nursery industry.\u00a0Fairly fast-growing, Serbian Spruce do well in full sun.<\/p>\n

SOLD OUT, see Serbian Spruce plug seedlings<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Originally from\u00a0Bosnia and Serbia in Southeastern Europe, Picea omorika feature short, dark green, flat needles (somewhat similar to a Hemlock) with a breeze revealing lovely silver undersides. This species features beautiful purple seed cones and a visually pleasing overall conical shape.<\/p>\n

Suitable for zones 4-7, this species can be planted much farther south than similar species such as Colorado Blue Spruce seedlings<\/a> or Norway Spruce seedlings<\/a> or White Spruce seedlings<\/a>, especially at higher elevations. They reach a height of up to 60 feet [occasionally to 100 feet] with a spread of 20 feet or more at the base. They prefer richer soils, but can do well in sandier soils if watered once or twice per week during dry periods. (Rick’s note: I planted my daughter’s Serbian Spruce in\u00a0about 6″ of rich soil at the top of a sandy hill, but rain runoff from our roof into that planting spot is significant. It has grown 15 feet in 15 years). Few natural pests or diseases affect Serbians other than White Pine Weevil, which can be easily controlled with over the counter pesticides.<\/p>\n
