Iseli Nursery: Tsuga canadensis ‘Jervis’ features tight, dark green foliage and a densely branched, broad pyramidal habit. ‘Jervis’ will grow slowly in your garden in an irregular form making it an interesting focal point that will not outgrow its place. The prominent buds and short twiggy growth make this a unique plant, adding year round interest to any garden.

 

ACS: This cultivar originated as a seedling selected in 1956 by G.G. Nearing of Ramsey, New Jersey. The original plant was a natural mutated plant that Nearing found near Port Jervis, New Jersey. It was originally introduced two names, 'Jervis' and 'Nearing.' The former proving to be more popular in the nursery trade and as such, became the established cultivar name.
