Picea abies 'Farnsburg' (A. Haller Nursery, Switzerland in 1970s) 2019 photo - Common Name: Dwarf Norway Spruce, Size at 10 years: 5ft., Light Green, USDA Hardiness Zone 3, In Garden Bed HR-P for 4.8 YEARS (HLG). Planted in 2015.
ACS: Picea abies 'Farnsburg' is dwarf pendulous or ground covering selection of Norway spruce with shorter-than-typical, light green needles. After 10 years of growth, a mature specimen will be staked to desired height and develop of 3 foot (1 m) wide skirt, increasing in size generally outwardly at a rate of 3 to 4 inches (7.5 - 10 cm) per year. Buchholz nursery of Gaston, Oregon describes it as being more refined than the ubiquitous 'Inversa.'
This cultivar originated as a seedling of 'Inversa' selected in the mid 1970s by R. Haller of Aarburg Switzerland.
