Picea pungens (Colorado Spruce) 
The old familiar Colorado Spruce has long been an item of great 
importance in the Evergreen line. By planting a quantity of these small 
trees a stock of blue specimens may be produced at a minimum cost. 
We collect our seed from altitudes and in localities where the blue trees 
predominate, but the stock, of course, is mixed, producing trees of both 
green and bluish tints.
