Balsam fir Piccolo is a compact evergreen shrub with a spherical shape and densely placed branches covered with short needles with blunt tips. The foliage of the plant is dark green with bright juicy light green new growth, giving it an attractive appearance year-round. This slow-growing shrub is highly frost-hardy up to -30°C and prefers light, acidified soils, making it ideal for use in Japanese-style gardens, alpine rock gardens, and heath gardens. Regular watering, mulching, and fertilizing, especially with specialized products for evergreens, are required to maintain the health and attractiveness of the plant.
