The Flowerwood Dwarf Alberta Spruce is a conifer with a pyramidal growth habit and dense evergreen needle foliage that is soft to the touch. This is a slow growing conifer that will take 15 plus years to reach its mature height, this slow growth habit makes this plant great for topiaries and container garden specimens that can be decorated during the holidays as a miniature Christmas tree.
