Elegant Columnar Shape:
'Karel' features a slender, upright growth habit, reaching a height of 60-90 cm with a spread of 30-45 cm. Its columnar form makes it ideal for creating vertical interest in small spaces, borders, and containers.
Delicate Foliage:
The foliage is a soft, silvery-blue, with fine, needle-like leaves that give a light, airy appearance. The colour provides a subtle yet sophisticated contrast to other garden plants, enhancing the overall aesthetic of your landscape.
Sun and Shade Tolerance:
'Karel' thrives in full sun to partial shade. It performs best with ample sunlight, which helps to maintain its vibrant foliage colour and compact shape. It can tolerate some shade but will grow more vigorously with more sun exposure.
Low Maintenance:
This spruce is easy to care for and requires minimal maintenance. Its naturally tidy shape means it does not need frequent pruning. Occasional removal of any dead or damaged branches will keep it looking its best.
Drought Tolerant:
Once established, 'Karel' is relatively drought tolerant and performs well in well-drained soil. While it prefers consistent moisture, it can handle short periods of dryness once settled.
Versatile Use:
Ideal for garden beds, rockeries, and containers, 'Karel' works well as a focal point, accent plant, or vertical element in various garden designs. Its elegant form and colour make it a versatile addition to both modern and traditional landscapes.
Wildlife Benefits:
