The Plant<\/h2>\n

PICEA abies ‘Pusch’<\/strong> belongs to the Norway spruce<\/strong> genus, although this form was voted conifer of the year.
\nIn fact, it is a very compact form<\/strong> which will not exceed 50 cm after ten years.
\nThis dwarf conifer<\/strong> surprises in spring when it develops its red then bright pink cones<\/strong> (see photo) at the end of the previous year’s growth. These remain on the plant until the following winter.
\nMoreover, the spring shoots are light green and very bright, as in the type species.
\nYou can plant this miniature conifer in a pot, a border, or a rock garden.<\/p>\n

    Caring<\/h3>\n

    This is a plant that does not require any special maintenance.
    \nIt resists extreme cold (below -20\u00b0C) and drought well in the ground (with complete rooting after about two years).
    \nIf you plant P. abies ‘Pusch’ in a container or tray, follow regular watering since rain will not be enough to ensure good humidity.

    History and Origin<\/h2>\n

    The type species, PICEA abies, also called Norway spruce, is endemic throughout Europe, except for the British Islands and the Iberian Peninsula. However, it is mainly present in the north, east and center of Europe.<\/p>\n

    If the classic PICEA abies can reach heights of 50 m, PICEA abies ‘Pusch’ is truly a conifer that can be considered miniature. In fact, it only grows a few centimeters per year.<\/p>\n

    The cultivar P. abies ‘Pusch’ was selected in 1980 in Germany by Hans Pusch and introduced onto the market in 1990. In 2008, it won the “Conifer of the Year” award from the German Nursery Association.<\/p>\n

    Norway spruce trees provide important shelter for birds and a food source for insects, some of which are threatened with extinction (e.g. the Rosalia longicorn<\/a><\/strong>, ROSALIA alpina).<\/p>\n
