Norway Spruce                 Z 3 to 7      H 40-60'           Picea abies

Norway Spruce is a graceful pyramidal evergreen. Norway Spruce is the fastest growing of the spruce and can grow up to 3' per year. Pyramidal and graceful when mature. Norway Spruce have beautiful spreading branches with drooping twigs. The needles persist for 3-4 years and are dark green and blunt compared to Blue Spruce. The cones on a Norway Spruce are long (4-6") purple when young (see picture below). Norway has good survival in ice storms. Squirrels love to collect the cones for seed. I found a couple hundred Norway Spruce cones all lined up in 3 rows outside my barn a few years ago and thought the kids laid them out. A couple of days later I spotted a red squirrel carrying more Norway cones to the rows. The little guy was stashing them in the barn for the winter. Norway Spruce were once used as masts on sailing ships. Norway Spruce is the major tree in the Black Forest of Germany. Norway Spruce was grown as a Christmas tree and is becoming more popular for that purpose again because of it's dense dark green color. Useful for grafting purposes. Norway Spruce can be moved easily balled and burlapped or with rootbags and can grow well in wet areas. Norway Spruce prefer a cool climate but can be set back by -30 temperatures. Norway Spruce prefer full sunlight. Norway Spruce pests: Mites can be a  problem.  Eastern Spruce gall aphid forms pineapple like galls at the base of twigs. Galls caused by Cooley's Spruce gall aphid cause browning at the branch tips. Bagworms can be a problem. In northern climates, Spruce budworm larvae eat the developing buds and young needles. The Spruce needle miner digs a small hole in the base of a needle then mines out the center. Pine needle scale is a white, elongated scale found feeding on the needles only. Sawfly larvae may feed on the needles. Borers can infest trees which are weakened by other problems. A row of Norway Spruce will work well for a fast growing wind break or hedge.
