Growing Information

The Colorado Blue Spruce thrives best in full sun and prefers well-drained, slightly acidic to neutral soil. Watering should be moderate, as the tree becomes drought-tolerant after establishment. It can reach mature heights of 30 to 60 feet but can be pruned smaller for bonsai purposes. This species is well-suited for long-term landscape use, rock gardens, or as a container specimen.
