5 Seeds Picea koraiensis Korean Spruce Evergreen Cold Hardy Conifer Tree

Picea koraiensis, commonly known as Korean Spruce, is a hardy evergreen conifer admired for its dense, pyramidal form and rich green needles. This slow-growing tree develops a graceful silhouette over time and works well as a specimen planting, windbreak, or container-grown ornamental for gardeners who appreciate long-lived evergreens.

Korean Spruce brings year-round structure and texture to the landscape, with a compact habit that suits both small and large gardens. It can be grown as a focal tree, in mixed conifer borders, or in rows for natural screening. Provide a sunny site with well-drained soil and consistent moisture while young; growth is steady but unhurried, rewarding patient growers with a refined, symmetrical shape.
