Notes
'Pendula Bruns' Serbian spruce (Picea omorika 'Pendula Bruns') is a tree for borders, specimen planting, accents, and winter interest. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It grows slowly into a narrow, arching evergreen that birds visit. It sits low on the menu for deer. Its narrow shape suits tight spaces.
Pairs well with Winter aconite, Wintergreen, and Sedge.
