Picea abies Wingle's Weeper

Description

A green weeping variety that has a very pendulous habit and often has branches at unusual angles. Develops multiple leaders that can grow up to 2′ in a year in various directions. If not staked, it will lay flat on the ground becoming a ground cover. With age, it will develop a terminal leader becoming an irregular upright weeping tree. Needles are very short and tight, blue-green in color. This plant makes a handsome specimen if staked to about 8 feet (2.6 m) vertical and then allowed to weep on it’s own after reaching that height and it will form ground cover skirt.  This cultivar originated as a seedling selected by Mat Wingle at his Christmas tree farm at Cedar Ridge Nursery, Augusta, New Jersey.
