Quick Overview:

Named for its nodding or weeping branches (Nutans is “nodding” in Latin), this dark green, upright Oriental spruce develops an attractive, extremely sculptural look. Graceful, irregular branches held at unusual angles and multiple leaders give it the beauty of a specimen.  (Courtesy of Missouri Botanical Garden Plant Finder)

Description

Easily grown in average, medium moisture, well-drained soils in full sun. Prefers rich, moist soils, but tolerates some poor soils including rocky ones. Although established plants have some drought tolerance, soils should be kept consistently moist and not allowed to dry out in the early years.  (Courtesy of Missouri Botanical Garden Plant Finder)
