Picea abies ‘Elegans’ (Elegant Nest Spruce)

Elegant Nest Spruce is a small specimen conifer that works best when people can actually notice it. It has a dense, low, nest-like form with dark green needles, and one of its nicest features is the bright green spring growth that appears a little earlier than on many other nest spruces. This is a really good choice for a rock garden, small accent bed, or anywhere you want a dwarf spruce with a bit more character than a standard mound.
