Moderate-growing evergreen shrub or small columnar tree to 10-15’ tall x 4-6’ wide, or greater with age. Exhibiting a strong pyramidal growth-habit, this handsome variety features dense-growing, silvery-blue foliage that retains its coloration throughout the year. Takes well to shearing, and is well-suited as a single specimen or planted in multiples to create an attractive screen, hedge or windbreak. Tolerates a variety of soil types (provide they’re fast-draining) and requires little water once fully established. Thrives in a full sun exposure. Deer resistant.
