Advice from our agronomist
Planting. Plant the spruce in spring or autumn in a sunny site with well-drained soil. Allow plenty of space, as the mature tree is large.
Care. Care is easy and no pruning is needed. Keep a layer of bark mulch around the base to hold moisture and suppress weeds.
Watering and feeding. Water young plants regularly for the first two years, keeping the soil evenly moist. Feed in spring with a conifer fertiliser.
Winter and pruning. Fully hardy. Protect young plants from spring sun scorch with a cover if needed. Pruning is not required.
