'Pumila’ is a slow-growing, hardy, dwarf evergreen that typically grows in a dense, flattened, globular mound. Its short dark green needles  emerge light green in spring. The needles remain dark green throughout the winter. The needles point up and out on this distinct, nest style spruce. When young it has a more rounded habit but it eventually spreads out with age. New growth appears later in the season. It is a great choice for smaller landscapes and rock gardens. It is relatively low maintenance shrub. If pruning is necessary, only prune back the new growth of the current season, other than to remove any dieback. Attracts birds. Only grows 3-5' a year.

Deer and rabbit tolerant.
