Picea abies 'Gold Drift'

Picea abies 'Gold Drift'

A gold form of the Norway weeping spruce. Most conifer lovers stake this tree to the height desired, then let it weep down. The new growth in spring is yellow-green, but turns bright gold by mid summer. Very showy! If you prefer it to grow flat as ground cover, then do not stake it. The foliage is more green in winter.
