Buy Frohburg Weeping Norway Spruce online. Dreaming of a weeping Norway spruce but short on space? Frohburg Weeping Norway Spruce offers the same dramatic, cascading beauty as its larger relatives, but in a more compact and refined form. This exceptional cultivar is perfect for gardeners who desire the elegance of a weeping spruce without overwhelming their landscape.
Imagine a curtain of verdant green cascading gracefully towards the ground. Frohburg Weeping Norway Spruce boasts a strictly pendulous habit, with branches that weep dramatically, creating a full, spreading skirt of foliage. Its fine texture, derived from shorter, slender, medium green needles, adds an airy lightness to its overall appearance.
Unlike the more widely known Picea abies 'Pendula', Frohburg Weeping Norway Spruce is a slower grower and maintains a narrower form. This makes it an ideal choice for smaller gardens, courtyards, or specimen plantings. Imagine it as a focal point in a rock garden, cascading over a retaining wall, or adding vertical interest to a mixed border.
Introduced by A. Haller Nursery of Switzerland in 1973, this carefully selected cultivar is a testament to the art of plant breeding. It combines the captivating beauty of a weeping spruce with a more manageable size, making it accessible to a wider range of gardeners. Bring a touch of graceful elegance to your landscape with Frohburg Weeping Norway Spruce – a captivating addition that will enhance your garden for years to come.
