Dwarf Conifers - The Conifer Collector Showcase

Описание: Dwarf conifers are popular due to their evergreen nature, compact size, and unique appearance. In this video, five dwarf conifers are highlighted:

1. Picea pungens 'Blue Pearl': A very compact blue spruce cultivar, growing only about a foot tall even after 10 years. It’s ideal for small spaces and containers, hardy in zones 3-7.

2. Picea glauca 'Pixie Dust': This small, conical conifer reaches about 1.5 feet tall and wide. It features contrasting yellow new growth, making it perfect for fairy gardens. Available both as a low graft and on a standard.

3. Pinus koraiensis 'Gee Broom': A dense, rounded dwarf Korean pine that grows to about 2.5-3 feet tall and wide. Known for its bluish-green color and tight habit, it’s excellent for colder climates (zones 2-8) and containers.

4. Picea glauca 'Icebreaker': A dense, rounded dwarf spruce with unique backward-curved silver needles. This plant is dramatic and striking but requires protection from high humidity and heat. Best in well-drained soil.

5. Picea orientalis 'Tom Thumb': A slow-growing, yellow conifer that stays around 2 feet tall. It’s available on standards for a lollipop effect and adds vibrant color to small spaces.

These dwarf conifers are well-suited for various garden settings, from miniature landscapes to containers. They thrive in well-drained soil and cold climates, offering year-round interest.
