% Picea albertiana conica. 2 ft. A pyramidal light green fluffy little 
tree. 75c - $2.50.

not correct but it has a different form from most small spruces listed.)

height of 9 in. increasing in width much faster than in height. The 
flattened top makes it a proper bush for the higher windswept reaches 
of the rock garden. $1.50.
