Four years of Abies procera 'Hupp's Christmas Tree'

This conifer selection by Drake's Crossing Nursery and offered by Jason Hupp and Western Evergreen Nursery is one of my favorite ten conifers. It shows exceptionally colored teal-blue, thick, long needles, very uniform squat-dwarf growth(of about three inches a year, 8cm), and just has that look to it. It's something I think should be planted in every garden that has some space for a small tree. The mother plant is enormous, probably 20-25 feet tall but probably also 40-60 years old. It's still thick and compact.

2012 - Early in the growing season, the color is an even more intense blue. It just glows.

2013 - Full sun, the more the better.
