PICEA (Continued)
abies ´Echiniformis´
____ A very slow-growing dwarf cultivar, forming a hedgehog-like polster
with its fine, slightly protruding branchlets; annual shoots
reach about 15 to 20 mm long, light green needles (each about 3
to 5 mm long) or the needles can be in dense clusters- a very lovely
dwarf spruce for rock gardens or for planting on graves or in
troughs; grows to about only 20 cm tall in 30 years. K, Z. Zone 4.
abies ´Inversa´ (= P. excelsa inversa, Abies excelsa inversa)
____ About 10 m tall, narrow, almost pillar-like growing, with branches
and shoots hanging almost vertically and growing densely close
to trunk; needle-like leaves are rather thick, dark green and
shiny - a peculiar spruce, that can be trained to grow into varied
shapes; trunk must be trained upwards at first. S. Zone 4.
abies ´Little Gem´
____ A dwarf spruce with a flat and rounded shape, originated as a
mutation from a twig of ´Nidiformis´, and similarly features a somewhat
nest-like growing habit; the delicate and densely growing
twigs grow from the middle onwards; shoots and branchlets
are covered with very fine and densely staying needles - a very
pleasant and loosely growing dwarf spruce. K, Z. Zone 4.
abies ´Nidiformis´ - Nest Spruce
____ Hardly over 1 m tall with a rounded and rather flattened growing
habit; branches grow from the middle slanting upwards and due
to the missing central stem, plant grows in the form of a nest;
branches stay fan-like together and are slightly twisted - a very
popular, and unmistakable dwarf spruce. K, Z. Zone 3.
abies ´Pumila Glauca´
____ A very flat and dense-growing dwarf cultivar, with shoots that are
arranged like platters over one another; shoot-ends hang slightly;
needles are dark bluish-green, and arranged semi-radially - a
decorative dwarf cultivar, that hardly grows beyond 1 m tall even
when older. K, Z. Zone 4.
