Quick Overview:

Picea abies ‘Pygmaea’ is one of the first named conifer cultivars in the international nursery trade. It is a very slow-growing, extremely variable, but usually broadly conical dwarf form of Norway spruce with dense branching and shoots display a wide range of vigor, from extremely congested to a few inches long.

Description

Easily grown in average, acidic, evenly moist, well-drained soils in full sun. Performs well in rich sandy soils. Prefers cool summer climates, and often grows poorly south of USDA Zone 7. Established plants have some tolerance for dryish soils.  (Courtesy of Missouri Botanical Garden Plant Finder)
