Grow an elegant and architectural evergreen with 1,600 Himalayan Spruce (Picea smithiana) seeds, also known as Morinda Spruce. This tall pyramidal conifer is admired for its horizontal branching and long, gracefully drooping branchlets that create a distinctive weeping appearance. Native to the Western Himalayas from Afghanistan to Nepal and Tibet, it is a striking specimen tree for large landscapes and estates.
At maturity, Himalayan Spruce can reach 70–100 feet tall with a 20–30 foot spread. Its four-angled needle-like green leaves densely surround the branches, and mature trees produce shiny brown-purple pendulous cones up to 6 inches long. The bark develops a scaly gray texture, enhancing its rugged mountain character.
Cold tolerant and moderately drought resistant once established, this evergreen thrives best in regions with cool summers. It is widely planted as an ornamental landscape tree and can also be trained as bonsai while young. You will receive seeds similar in quality and viability to those shown in the listing photos.
