A small, shimmering blue evergreen accent tree, eventually becoming a miniature Christmas tree-like shape; a strong leader and long, thin needles with the intense silver-blue of his parents; a tree of great beauty and color which is retained throughout the year; an excellent choice for form and color in the garden composition; extremely hardy and rugged
Out of stock
A true combination of his parents’ genes, Monty has the best of both the Montgomery and Hoopsii blue spruce. Monty Blue Spruce is a dwarf conifer which is primarily valued in the landscape or garden for its distinctively pyramidal habit of growth. It has attractive intensely blue evergreen foliage with tinges of silver. The needles are highly ornamental and remain silvery blue throughout the winter.
It is a dense evergreen tree with a strong central leader and a distinctive and refined pyramidal form. Its relatively fine texture sets it apart from other landscape plants with less refined foliage. This is a relatively low maintenance shrub. When pruning is necessary, it is recommended to only trim back the new growth of the current season, other than to remove any dieback. Deer don’t particularly care for this plant and will usually leave it alone in favor of tastier treats.

A stately looking upright evergreen that grows uniformly and is perfect for privacy or wind screening; very resilient and resists ice and snow damage, grows in almost any soil type
Possibly the most popular of all feature trees for the home landscape, with rich burgundy-purple palm-shaped foliage all season long and a very artistic spreading growth habit; put it in the front yard and give it lots of room to grow
A stunning accent shrub with gracefully arching and weeping branches, a twisted trunk and very showy pink to purple flowers held tightly on bare branches in early spring, curious heart-shaped leaves; an incredible garden accent, especially when in bloom
