5 Seeds Picea breweriana Weeping Spruce Tree Evergreen Ornamental

Picea breweriana, commonly called Brewer spruce or weeping spruce, is a rare evergreen conifer prized for its graceful, drooping branchlets and narrow, pendulous habit. Native to a small area of the Pacific Northwest, it brings an elegant, cascading silhouette to temperate gardens and makes an outstanding specimen tree for those who appreciate distinctive conifers.
This spruce works beautifully as a focal point in mixed borders, rock gardens, or larger landscape plantings, where its weeping form adds year-round structure and texture. It is grown primarily as an ornamental tree and, like most conifers, prefers cool climates and well-drained ground. Growth is slow to moderate, eventually forming a tall, narrow tree with age.
