Nursery contributed plant descriptions

The habit of this extremely dense, Alberta-type plant explains it name: short and plump, kind of egg-shaped, like Humpty Dumpty. With nearly equal base width and height, it forms an almost perfect pyramid that is only two-thirds the size of 'Conica.' Found as a witch's broom and introduced by Iseli Nursery.
