Dwarf Alberta spruce, aka Picea glauca Conica, is a traditional evergreen conifer, which makes a very cute Christmas tree or an ideal gift for the holidays. Having a living Christmas tree is becoming more and more popular every year, as it is a sustainable choice. It’s loved for its full shape, soft needles and its unmistakable scent, which brings back memories and makes you feel festive instantly. You can also add mini LED lights, which will make it extra jolly.

What to expect

The plant comes with a default nursery pot. The nursery pot is usually 0.5" - 1" smaller than stated to fit into the same size decorative pot. Washable Paper Planter Bags are sold separately.

As with all living things, no two plants are alike. There is some natural variation in size, shape, and characteristics. We make every effort to bring you a plant that as closely as possible matches the plant as it appears on our website, in the size you have chosen, and have a good potential to happily grow in your home.

Pro tips

It does not need misting, but to avoid the needles of your spruce tree getting burned, place your tree away from direct heat sources such as radiators, heater vents, fireplaces and stoves - as it prefers cooler temperatures. It is important, however, for your spruce tree to get as much indirect sunlight as possible. So place it as close to a window as possible in a spot with good air circulation. Because it’s a pot-grown tree, don’t throw yours away after Christmas. It will live very happily outside, growing a bit bigger each year and providing you with a larger tree every Christmas. It can be moved outdoors in the early spring but needs to be hardened off by gradually exposing it to outdoor conditions once again.

Care Guide

How to take care of Dwarf Alberta Spruce

Sun: Direct & Indirect

They enjoy some direct sun, but they'll also do well in bright, indirect light. It is best to place this plant somewhere where it will receive some nice morning sun, or a couple hours of afternoon sun, and then indirect light the rest of the day.

Light: Bright

They will do best in bright light. A nice bright place inside your home would be on the window sill or a stool that is right next to a window, either with or without blinds, depending on if the plant can handle sun. Remember that plants will grow based on how much light they receive.

Water: When top quarter dry

Allow the top quarter of the soil to dry before watering again. This usually takes about 3 - 4 days in an average home environment. It will vary depending on the time of year, your environment and lighting conditions. Expect to water more often in brighter light and less often in lower light.

Humidity: Low

Their humidity requirement is low, so do not mist them or put them in a terrarium.

Pet Friendly

You can feel comfortable having this plant around your home in the potential case where your pet feels like nibbling on it. However, we typically recommend keeping your pets from eating any of your houseplants.
