PICEA PUN MONTY
Grower Notes:

Monty® Blue Spruce (Picea pungens 'INMoHoop' PP34,883) is a striking new introduction from Iseli, expertly combining the best genetics of 'Montgomery' and 'Hoopsii' Spruce. This exceptional evergreen is truly ideal for smaller landscapes or as a distinctive specimen tree, offering year-round beauty without overwhelming the space.

It boasts a classic conical Christmas tree shape with a strong central leader and long, slender, intensely blue, frosty needles that shimmer in the sunlight. With a mature size of approximately 8 feet tall and 6 feet wide, and a moderate growth rate of about 6 inches per year, Monty® maintains its compact, dense habit naturally, requiring minimal pruning.

Beyond its stunning appearance, Monty® Blue Spruce is also a practical choice. It's deer resistant, making it a fantastic option for gardens where deer browse is a concern. It thrives in full sun and prefers nutrient-rich, evenly moist, well-drained soils, but once established, it demonstrates good drought tolerance and is resilient to various weather conditions.

Whether you're looking for a vibrant focal point, a compact privacy screen, or a low-maintenance addition to your garden, Monty® Blue Spruce is a great choice for its showy color, manageable size, and robust nature.
