Voted 2007 Collectors Conifer of the Year by the American Conifer Society. This weeping Serbian grows strictly narrow, similar to the habit of Picea glauca 'Pendula'. As landscapes get smaller, 'Bruns' will become a perfect choice for narrow spaces. Characteristic green and bluish-silver needles demand attention as the plant grows into a tall specimen. This cultivar was found at Bruns Nursery in Germany. Growth Rate medium, 6-12" annually
