Nursery contributed plant descriptions

This weeping Serbian spruce does not have a dominant upright leader, so it can be grown as a spreading mound with an informal leader, or it can be trained to stand upright and then allowed to spread. The needles of the fantastic variety are noticeably larger and born on thicker stems than those of other cultivars of Picea omorika.
