Tufts of tiny green needles cover the many short shoots of this dense, tight bun. Originally a witch’s broom on ‘Nidiformis’ and more ball-like than its parent, Picea abies ‘Little Gem’ was discovered in 1958 and has been an extremely popular plant ever since. Its tough constitution and restrained growth assure good performance in a variety of garden situations where it resembles a lush, green pincushion. Full sun to part shade.
