Picea pungens ‘Koster’s Prostrate’ Specimen 1587

Description

A weeping blue form with nice powder-blue needles.  There is some confusion in the trade as to which name is correct:  ‘Kosteri Pendula,’ ‘Koster’s Pendula,’ ‘Koster’s Prostrate’ or ‘Glauca Pendula.’  The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Conifers uses ‘Glauca Pendula’ – so we have renamed it.  It was found at Koster Nursery in Boskoop, Holland in the late 19th century.
