Picea glauca ‘Conica’

Iseli Nursery USA

The classic Dwarf Alberta Spruce may well be the most popular, familiar, dwarf conifer in cultivation. It grows slowly into a perfectly conical, small tree with a thick coating of fine, green needles. Its perfect form, compact growth and dense foliage make it ideal for entry, container and landscape. It responds well to shearing and shaping for topiary too. Found at Lake Leggan, Alberta, Canada, by Prof. J.G. Jack and Alfred Rehder of the Arnold Arboretum in 1904, it appreciates consistent moisture, good nutrition and an occasional blast from the garden hose during summer to increase pest resistance.

This broom is only 2 miles from my house and very close to where I grew up! In the early 70s a friend and I saw a great horned owl nest in this tree, at the time I wanted a baby owl. It was early spring and we could see mother owl sitting on eggs. We waited to see the parents feeding the babies, it was time to collect a baby! Now try to picture two ten year old boys with a rope! Up in the tree I went, boy scout back pack to put my new pet in and lower down to my friend! As I got closer to the nest I noticed the nest was green like the tree? Not knowing what a broom was I never gave it a second thought. Back to the owl, as I got close to the nest my friend was yelling DUCK! I was not concerned with ducks at this time because I had mother owl swoopping down on me! still he kept yelling DUCK!LOL! Needless to say it was time to get the heck out there, no baby owl! 42 years later I bring to you Picea glauca' Duck'. Now the once tight ball like broom is dying/rotting from the center! I am glad I got to it before it died! Rob Tudehope text.

When most conifers have faded to a softer summer color, this dwarf Alberta spruce puts on a second flush of golden growth that brightens up the scene. The slow-growing, narrow cone gets its best color in full sun. Brent Markus text.

This short, plump selection of Picea glauca 'Conica' exhibits the same likeability as its namesake, Bilbo Baggins from JRR Tolkien's The Hobbit. Like Baggins, the small, reliable Alberta-type is half-size, well behaved and hard working. Tiny, green needles on upright branches give the globe-shaped young 'Hobbit' charm and contribute to its appeal as it matures into a wide cone. Provide ample moisture for this adaptable cultivar discovered at Iseli Nursery. Iseli text.

Iseli Nursery USA

Pronounced "John's" Dilly, this extraordinary, Alberta-type selection bears the name of dwarf conifer pioneer Jean Iseli. It was named by his brother, Andre', to note the plant's remarkable qualities. Much smaller, denser and slower growing than other Alberta types, its short, fine needles display a distinctive twist during the growing season. Spring growth starts about 3-4 weeks later than 'Conica's. Found at Iseli Nursery in 1981, this signature plant is a fitting choice to honor the co-founder of Iseli Nursery. Iseli text.

The entire mother tree was donated to the Bickelhaupt Arboretum, Clinton, IA for display in the Heartland Collection of Dwarf and Rare Conifers. The original broom and mother tree was moved into the Heartland Collection in the fall of 1989. In 2002 the original broom had died because of shading and lack of sunlight from the mother tree despite continual pruning of the mother tree. At that time the original tree was also removed. Fortunately the propagation from the original witches' broom lives on and is thriving only a short distance from where the original mother tree was located in the Arboretum. Also reported in ACS Bulletin - 92Wi. ACS text.

Found in Clinton, Iowa. Later, Iseli Nursery

began propagating this broom and changed the name to Heartland Metz. Herbst text.

Selected for its resilience to harsh winter conditions, this sturdy, compact White Spruce produces a densely branched, classic pyramid that is covered with medium-green needles. Its moderate growth rate and ultimate, intermediate size, together with superior hardiness make this introduction from Iseli Nursery ideal for use in larger, more exposed spaces, mixed borders and beds.

This tiny, Alberta-type selection of Picea glauca has short, dark-green needles with a slight blue cast. Much more dense and compact than 'Conica', it also displays a prominent show of large, round buds that give the tree a decorated look.

Extremely dense, compact and slow growing, this miniature selection resembles 'Conica' in form, but offers a special feature. When the second flush of growth emerges in summer, the new tips are yellow, a surprising effect that contrasts dramatically with the deep-green, mature foliage. Chosen by the American Conifer Society as 2006 Collector's Conifer of the Year, this adaptable cultivar produces a magical effect in trough, container or rock garden. Provide ample moisture and full sun for the best color on this sport of 'Pixie' that was discovered at Iseli Nursery. Iseli text.

Superior seasonal color makes 'Rainbow's End'« a brilliant addition to the summer garden. A second flush of growth transforms the light-green, conical tree in mid-summer into a beacon of bright lemon-yellow. Although similar in size and shape to 'Conica,' the extraordinary color of this tree offers a dramatic summer surprise. Found as a mutation at Iseli Nursery in 1978, it appreciates consistent moisture, good nutrition and an occasional blast from the garden hose during summer to increase pest resistance. Iseli text.

Found as a broom in western Iowa, USA

This slow-growing spruce was found as a witch's broom by Rob Tudehope at a cemetery. The original broom was located near his wife's family's burial plot, so he named it in honor of their last name, Weaver. Brent Markus text.

Picea glauca ‘Yukon Blue’

2002 Iseli Nurs. USA

Perfect for areas where a slow-growing, hardy, garden conifer with a narrow upright habit is needed. It displays blue gray needles with brown buds at the branch tips. Short, electric blue-gray needles and prominent, brown buds at the tips of the branches give this narrow, upright pyramid a distinctive look. With a slightly faster rate of growth than 'Conica', it makes an exceptional focal point or grouping. Iseli text.
