Metasequoia glyptostroboides, DAWN REDWOOD, , 5,6,7,8, history 

Mature height - 80'x20', Growth - Fast, Light - S, Soil - Med-Wet, Origin - China 

Best sited in moist, deep well drained soil but will take wet better than some. Avoid frost hollows as fast growth, (50' in 20yrs) suffers. This tree is one of those dinosaur nudgers, fascinating to think it has been in existence for 100 million years. Soft needles that are deciduous and will give golden fall color.

Select  'blue' spruce, grown from seed. Color is variable, from blue/green to blue/silver. Of course you want the bluest so that's what we try and send. As long as its not wet will take on any situation.

Picea pungens, 'Fat Albert', Z 3,4,5,6,7, DR, blue needles

Certainly blue.
