DESCRIPTION
Picea abies 'Pumila’ is an evergreen conifer celebrated for its compact, rounded form and vibrant foliage. The plant showcases dense, dark green needles that remain year-round, making it a superb choice for adding consistent color to gardens. Its growth habit features lower branches that spread outward and upper branches that point upwards, creating a unique mounded or nest-like appearance. In the spring, its bright orange buds add a subtle decorative element to its already appealing structure.
