Young-ish engelmann spruce in nice pot from Nicky Ducommun, appears to be ~14-17 years old based on branch whorls and thickness. Likely was a young yamadori. Very straight. Maybe formal upright? Or needs serious styling.
Current care
Early Summer- Watering
- Monitor closely in warm weather; daily checks likely required.
- Fertilization
- Reduce nitrogen, continue balanced or low-nitrogen feeding.
- Wiring
- Remove wire if biting occurs; otherwise check stability.
- Summer Protection
- Partial shade preferred in extreme sun to prevent needle burn.
