The mini trees are so easy that there is a spot for them everywhere: in the garden but also on the balcony or terrace.
Care Tips
The dwarf conifers do not get their name directly from their small size, but from their slow growth. When purchased, the plant is therefore older than you would expect. This means you will enjoy it more. Once the dwarf conifers have grown sufficiently, you can plant them in the garden. Dwarf conifers can remain in the garden for generations without becoming wild. If you place it outside in the ground in spring, you hardly need to fertilize or prune it. The plant appears fuller and is less likely to have bare spots. If you have kept it indoors all winter, it is advisable to let it acclimate in the shed for a while before planting it outside in spring. The tree will eventually grow to about one meter tall. By the way, you can also combine it well with flowering ground covers or bedding plants. Or put it in a nice pot for the terrace or balcony.
Facts
Do not hold the top of the Picea glauca Conica 'December'® with your hands. The chance that the dwarf conifer will suffer damage from the skin oils on your hands is high. Therefore, always hold it from the bottom. And... make sure they get enough water, because drying out is fatal for this dwarf conifer. Feel free to pluck some needles and crush them between your hands. What do your hands smell like? Exactly, black currants. By the way, the Picea was found in the wild in 1904 in the mountains of Canada. The dwarf conifer Conica Picea December® is perfect to use as a mini Christmas tree indoors or on the balcony or terrace. In combination with heather or berry plants, you create a cozy winter scene. Or how about a dwarf conifer in a pot as an eye-catcher by the front door? Small specimens can also be used as small decorations.
