Blue, gem-like color combined with a slow rate of growth makes Picea pungens ‘Zafiro’ suited for gardens with limited space. It has the outstanding lush blue needles of its parent, P.p. ‘Moerheim’ but differs in size and habit from other selections with much slower growth and a rounded profile. This compact dwarf tree is an excellent alternative choice to the generic “Dwarf Blue Globe Spruce” commonly specified in suburban landscapes. Mature size: 8’H x 6’W Zone 2
