Picea glauca Sander’s Fastigiata
Picea glauca ‘Sander’s Fastigiata’ is a narrow, upright selection of white spruce chosen for its strong vertical habit and disciplined structure. Developed as a more architectural alternative to broader spruce forms, this cultivar maintains a tight, columnar silhouette well into maturity. Dense green needles provide year-round texture while emphasizing its clean lines. It grows best in full sun with cool, evenly moist, well-drained soil and develops at a moderate pace. Hardy in USDA Zones 3–7, it is especially useful in formal landscapes, tight spaces, and designs that call for vertical emphasis.
