| Check out Picea pungens Fat Albert. It is a little smaller than the Picea pungens glauca. Also Picea pungens Montgomery. It starts out small and globe like and eventually grows more upright. This is a nice site with many blue conifers including Montgomery. Copy and paste It helps to have exact names to use in the search. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Fat Albert

| Thank You very much for your help! I live in zone 6 so, I will view the recommended sites to see which variety might be best. I was also thinking about the Alberta Spruce. |
