Picea abies

Picea abies 'Chuchelná' is a flattened-globose, dwarf selection of Norway spruce with symmetrical, radial branching holding finely-textured light green needles. After 10 years of growth, a mature specimen will measure 24 to 36 inches (60 - 90 cm) tall and somewhat wider, an annual growth rate of 2 to 3 inches (5 - 7.5 cm).
