Brad argintiu in ghiveci - Picea pungens 'Blue Diamond' H180-200 cm
- Royal Color: The name "Blue Diamond" is perfectly justified. The needle color is an intense blue that adds a strong visual contrast to any landscape and remains equally vibrant throughout the year. The color intensity can be influenced by soil pH; more acidic soil tends to enhance the blue shade.
- Shape and Structure: It has a natural conical or pyramidal growth, very regular and dense, requiring little to no pruning to maintain its neat appearance.
- Size: It is a medium to large variety. At maturity, it can reach heights between 6 and 8 meters (although the growth rate is slow, about 10-20 cm per year).
- Hardiness: It is a robust, evergreen tree, fully frost-resistant (down to -40°C), adaptable to various climatic conditions in Romania.
- Light: Prefers locations with full sun to develop its optimal color.
- Soil: Adapts to most soil types, although some sources mention that more acidic soil can intensify the color, but it also tolerates calcareous soils. Well-drained soil is important.
- Maintenance: It is a low-maintenance plant, ideal for gardeners who want a strong visual impact with minimal effort.
Indoor care conditions:
This spruce is an outdoor plant but can be kept indoors during the holiday season provided it is placed in a cool area (e.g., a closed/open balcony), well ventilated, and watered when the substrate is dry. It does NOT tolerate high temperatures and lack of humidity well.
Each specimen is unique and has a slightly different shape.
Note: The transport pot may be damaged/cracked due to the weight of the substrate and the plant. Specimens initially grown in soil and later moved to pots specifically for transport. In this case, the root system is smaller relative to the foliage volume, which means the plant's development after planting may vary, requiring an adaptation period to the new conditions.
