Buy Big Berta White Spruce online. Looking for the classic beauty of an Alberta Spruce, but with a bolder presence and faster growth? Meet Big Berta White Spruce, a unique cultivar that takes the familiar charm of Picea glauca 'Conica' and amplifies it to create a truly magnificent evergreen.

Imagine the iconic conical shape of an Alberta Spruce, but on a grander scale. Big Berta White Spruce boasts the same captivating juvenile foliage, but with significantly longer needles, creating a lush, textured appearance. Its faster growth rate quickly establishes a more open, statuesque form, making it a standout feature in any landscape.

Born from a fascinating hybridization of P. glauca 'North Star' and P. pungens 'Montgomery', Big Berta White Spruce inherits the best qualities of its parentage: the hardiness of a white spruce and the striking form of a Colorado blue spruce. This robust heritage makes it an excellent choice for northern landscapes, where it can withstand harsh conditions while adding a touch of evergreen elegance.

More than just a beautiful tree, Big Berta White Spruce offers a unique combination of form, texture, and resilience. Its rapid growth allows you to enjoy its majestic presence sooner, while its open form provides a dynamic contrast to more compact evergreens. Whether used as a focal point, a screen, or a specimen planting, Big Berta is sure to make a statement. Bring home Big Berta White Spruce and experience the grandeur of a truly exceptional specimen.
