Abies balsamea 'Piccolo'

A tiny, uniform balsam fir cultivar with dark-green needles that radiate around its many shot branches, hugging the stems. Its branches tend to grow with a bit of a twist. This improved selection displays prominent brown buds for seasonal interest. The dense, very dwarf globe is ideal for rock gardens, containers and small landscapes. In ten years, a mature specimen will stand 12" tall and 16 wide. Annual growth rate is 1".
