Cultivar Origin | "The late Gary Lanham found this unusual, boldly textured, compact Norway Spruce in 1994 in Kentucky, a witches broom nearly 10′ up in a mature Picea abies. Intrigued by the interesting beehive form, Gary took it to Klein’s Nursery in Louisville, and from there, it made its way to Iseli Nursery" (#202) |
