Colorado Blue Spruce – Picea pungens glauca 400 Seeds | Bulk Evergreen Conifer Pack Hardy | Windbreak | Christmas Tree | Bonsai | Privacy Screen

Colorado Blue Spruce is a classic, cold-hardy evergreen prized for its striking silver-blue needles and symmetrical pyramidal form. Native to the central Rocky Mountains, this adaptable conifer is widely planted across North America as a specimen tree, windbreak, hedge, privacy screen, or Christmas tree.

In cultivation, it typically grows 30–60 feet tall, with strong horizontal branching that often extends to the ground. In its natural habitat, it may reach 80–100 feet. The stiff, sharp, four-sided needles range from green to blue-green to brilliant silvery-blue and radiate outward from the twigs, giving the tree its dense, full appearance.

Light brown cylindrical cones (2–4 inches long) mature in fall. Mature bark becomes gray to reddish-brown with shallow furrows. Once established, Colorado Blue Spruce is tolerant of cold, wind, and moderate drought, making it an excellent choice for shelterbelts and large-scale plantings.

This 400-seed bulk pack is ideal for nurseries, windbreak projects, mass plantings, reforestation efforts, or serious growers.
