Picea abies 'Berry Garden Slow' (brightness adjusted for clarity)

Picea abies 'Blue Trout' - photos don't depict plant color very well (great plant grafted on a standard).

Picea pungens 'Burl' - how about a camera that tells you when a photo is blurry! God dammit:

Picea pungens 'Continental' - Darkest Blue I found. A gem!

Picea pungens 'Girard's Aurea' very similar to 'Lutea'

Picea pungens 'Girard's Aurea'

Picea pungens 'Green Goose'

Picea pungens 'Iseli Select #8' - probably a lost 'relic'.

Thanks for all the great photos. I especially love the Picea pungens 'Continental' and I think your new plant is very cool also.

Dax, you might want to rethink your pic tagged as Picea orientalis 'Losley' :0)

I did..... Rich said it was an orientalis and I thought it was a Picea abies. So, I went with the flow at the moment.
Losely - is a nursery, that much I can add.

Yes, according to Bluespruce, certainly not a Picea orientalis, but pungens.

Hi Dax and Stephen,

The correct name for the true Picea orientalis cultivar is 'Losely' and not 'Losley'
It seems that the l and the e are mentioned in the wrong sequence.

If I find out anymore information on 'Losely' (I spelled it right Edwin) I'll post. I already got an email tonite but unfortunately it led to no conclusions. All I can do is wait.

Of course though, 'Losely' being used twice for a name within the same Genus ----- probably in itself made a contributing factor for any confusion that exists both currently with just the names and then, the possibility of only anyone can guess. i.e., a simple error while slapping a tag on a plant, or anything else, for that matter.

Edwin, I checked my list just in case, and still have it down as P. or 'Losley', that's not to say I got it down correct..where did you get the spelling 'Losely from ??

Hi Stephen,

Please typ the name Picea orientalis 'Losely' at Google and you will see that you are the only one who spelled it in another way.
I hope I helped you with this.

Here is a link that might be useful: Picea orientalis 'Losely'

I forgot to return to this thread. The plant I show is a Picea abies. My plant photo is Picea abies 'Losely'. Rich Eyre of Rich's Foxwillow Pines has a rare specimen probably in no other garden, and I say this because Talon has never heard of any Picea abies 'Losely'.

Many thanks for reading this folks.

So Google Picks up this information:

Picea abies 'Losely' - NOT Picea orientalis 'Losely'

Rich thinks hybrid... only time will tell when the fruiting bodies occur.

Best Regards,
