Picea glauca Sanderi

Picea glauca ‘Sanderi’ is a compact dwarf white spruce selected for its dense branching and uniform, rounded to conical habit. Long valued in European gardens, this cultivar offers the fine texture and cold hardiness of the species on a much smaller, more controlled scale. Short needles and tight internodes give it a tidy, composed appearance year-round. It grows slowly in full sun and prefers cool climates with evenly moist, well-drained soil. Hardy in USDA Zones 3–7, it remains modest in size and works beautifully in rock gardens, containers, and curated conifer collections.
