Black Hills Spruce - Picea glauca var. dens

Transplant Height: 8-18 in

Black Hills Spruce has denser, more compact habit and slower growth rate with a mature height of 30-60 feet. The thin bark is ashy gray or brown, shallowly fissured and separated into thin flaky scales. The needles are individually attached, and foliage color varies from deep green to blue green. The brown cylindrical cones appear in late July and may persist on the tree into January. It grows best in acidic, moist loams with full sun, but adapts to a variety of conditions including shade, drought, hot and cold. It is flood intolerant and sensitive to soil compaction.
