Picea abies 'Stephanie's Green Golf Ball' | Stephanie's Green Golf Ball Norway Spruce

$0.00

DESCRIPTION
Picea abies 'Stephanie's Green Golf Ball' features short, deep green needles densely arranged along compact branches, creating a richly textured evergreen canopy that maintains its color throughout the year. Fresh spring growth emerges with lighter green tones that add depth and seasonal contrast. Small reddish female cones and yellow pollen cones appear in spring, providing subtle ornamental interest among the foliage. The persistent needles and intricate branch structure contribute texture and visual appeal during every season.

Selected from the Norway spruce, a species native to northern and central Europe, this cultivar was chosen for its refined form and ornamental qualities. Its dense evergreen character lends itself to conifer collections, foundation plantings, and rock gardens, where year-round texture and structure can be appreciated.
