Picea abies 'Pendula'
Choose Weeping Norway Spruce if you want one evergreen specimen with character, not a tidy screen. Its branch structure is the reason to buy it; the tradeoff is slow growth and a shape that needs room and occasional training.
| Category | Grade | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape Impact | A | Its weeping form gives a planting bed a strong anchor without needing flowers. |
| Growth Rate | C+ | It develops slowly, which helps with control but frustrates customers who want quick size. |
| Maintenance | B | Maintenance is light once placed well, though staking and early shaping matter if you want height. |
| Deer Resistance | A- | Deer rarely bother this tree; it is a dependable choice where deer are a concern, though young trunks can still be rubbed. |
| Small Space Fit | C | It can be trained, but the spreading habit makes it a poor fit for cramped beds. |
| Screening Value | D | This is not a practical screen because the form is irregular and slow to fill. |
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend this as a standalone plant, not a filler. Decide whether you want it staked upright or allowed to sprawl before planting, because that choice drives the whole layout.

Only if you want height; without staking, it will naturally spread and drape.
Only with enough clearance, because the branches do not stay neatly upright.
It has strong deer resistance, but heavy winter pressure can make any plant vulnerable.

The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!
Very nice
Guys installed for me as well
Great job
Huge selection and fast delivery. All plants arrived in great condition.
Great prices and Unbelievable selection of big and small trees, shrubs, and flowering perennials! Nicest folks to work with. And local delivery is awesome! First time purchasing from this company, , and have already told friends, neighbors and family. The owner Chris is professional, knowledgeable, and yet laid back in a most friendly way. Mags in the office will help with any details. My all time BEST garden purchase EVER!
Progrowers was a great company to purchase from. Very fast delivery to my house. The tree seems to be in great condition and is so far doing really well!

Good size but tree seemed to be root bound. Tree budding late August.
