Dwarf Alberta Spruce
Picea glauca
Dwarf Alberta spruce trees may eventually reach 12 feet in height, but only over a long period of time (growing just 2-4 inches per year). They have a classic “Christmas tree” shape. The green needles have a tight, densely-packed growth habit that gives dwarf Alberta spruce trees a “fuzzy” look.

A great filler between larger trees and shrubs. Works well en masse in borders and along driveways, or as a single accent in a rock garden.

Douglas Fir
Pseudotsuga menziesii
Needles range from dark green to blue-green in color. Needles radiate in all directions from the branch, and are soft to the touch. When crushed needles have a sweet fragrance. Douglas Fir is not related to the true firs. Branches are spreading to drooping, the buds sharply pointed and the bark is very thick, rough and dark brown. Young cones are small, oval shaped and hang downward. They are reddish-brown to gray, long and do not dissipate to spread seed as do true firs. The cones open in the late summer to disperse the seeds and will continue to hang on the trees through the fall.
