Picea g. 'Blue Planet' #1

Picea glauca ‘Blue Planet’

Its subtle bluish‑green foliage adds color and texture to small gardens, rockeries, container plantings, or fairy‑garden scenes. Perfect for tight spaces or as an evergreen accent where larger conifers would overwhelm.

Why We Love It

We love ‘Blue Planet’ for its delicate bluish‑green texture and gentle, evergreen presence that fits beautifully into small gardens, rockeries, or container plantings. Its compact, slow growth makes it virtually maintenance-free, providing structure and subtle color without taking over the space.
