Picea abies 'Archer' is a miniature, conical selection of Norway spruce with extremely congested branching holding tightly packed dark green needles. It's one of those spruces that is hard to penetrate with a finger. After 10 years of growth, a mature specimen will measure 12 inches (30 cm) tall and wide in the form of a "Hershey's Kiss."
This cultivar originated as a witch's broom found in 1985 by J. W. Archer of the United Kingdom.
