Below is the beautiful Colorado Blue Spruce. The needles range in color from dark green to bright blue. The Colorado Blue Spruce has short, sharp, very strong needles with good needle retention if kept watered. The needles are 1-1 1/2 inches long on lower branches but somewhat shorter on upper branches. They are 4-sided and have a very sharp point on the end. It is this point which gives the species its name "pungens", from the Latin word for sharp, as in puncture wound. Needles are generally dull bluish-gray to silvery blue.
