Picea abies Gold Drift
This pendulous form of Norway Spruce adds color to the garden in whatever shape and boundaries the gardener allows it to have. Early spring brings lime green new growth. The foliage that is fully exposed to the sun turns a vibrant yellow in late spring and summer. The brilliance continues until winter when the color becomes more subdued.
