Fat Albert Colorado Blue Spruce Tree Two Gallon
The Fat Albert Colorado Blue Spruce will be one of those trees you just love to have around. Enjoy the rich blue coloring on this spruce variety, as well as the dense branching and pyramidal form. Any of the Colorado Blue Spruces would be a wonderful choice for a living Christmas tree either indoors or out. The Fat Albert Blue Spruce is an ideal choice for the small garden, reaching just fifteen feet tall, and an excellent choice for front lawns in the most limited landscapes. Another place for your spruce tree would be as a background foliage plant behind beds and borders giving great contrast to other garden hues. Try using your blue spruce mass planted in gardens of dwarf conifers. Hardy to USDA zone 2 and all higher zones. Shipped potted in soil to ensure a healthier start when planted in yard or garden.

Frequently Asked Questions
Any guidelines on using living trees indoors for Christmas?
Best not to keep a conifer indoors much more than 2 weeks or so. Be sure to keep far away from any direct source of heat and water appropriately. Keep a squirt bottle handy to mist the tree once a day or so to keep branches moist and supple. Strong light always a plus. Enjoy!
