Notes
'Noel' Norway spruce (Picea abies 'Noel') is a tree for specimen planting, accent, and winter interest. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, sandy soil. It grows at a rapid rate into a tall, conical evergreen that attracts birds. It is not a favorite of deer, though hungry deer will eat almost anything. Give it plenty of room to spread.
Pairs well with Berry Poppins winterberry, Northern bayberry, Sensitive fern, and Carlton daffodil.
