Buy Papoose Sitka Spruce online. Looking for a distinctive evergreen that adds a touch of the unexpected to your landscape? Meet Papoose Sitka Spruce, a captivating cultivar with sharp, two-toned, blue-green needles that offer a unique visual texture. Imagine a tree that shimmers with a blend of cool blues and vibrant greens, adding a touch of coastal charm to your garden.

One of the most enchanting features of Papoose Sitka Spruce is its spring display. Late in the season, clusters of buds burst open at the branch tips, forming blossom-like bursts of fresh foliage. This creates a stunning contrast against the older needles, adding a touch of ephemeral beauty to the landscape. Picture it: a tree adorned with delicate, almost floral accents, heralding the arrival of spring.

Papoose Sitka Spruce begins its life as a dense, globose mound, perfect for adding a touch of whimsy to smaller spaces. As it matures, it develops a leader and gradually transforms into a tight, upright, broadly shaped specimen. This dynamic growth habit adds an element of surprise and intrigue to the garden, offering a constantly evolving display of beauty. Discovered by Gordon Bentham on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, this deer-resistant spruce is not only beautiful but also practical, making it an excellent choice for a variety of landscape settings.
