How to Use Dwarf Alberta Spruce Spiral Topiary in the Landscape

Have you ever seen photos of the Queen of England’s guards? They are strongly upright, highly decorated and placed where they’ll have the most impact.

Well, these Topiaries will bring the same kind of formal ornament to your landscape. Thinking of them as living sculptures—or little formal sentinels—will help you unlock the design potentials for these amazing, one-of-a-kind, small evergreen trees.

There is nothing more eye-catching and attractive than a pair of them placed on either side of the entryway. They can be planted in the ground on either side of your front door, or they can be grown in containers.

Use the prettiest pots you can find. They’ll work equally as well in high-gloss glazed pots or square matte resin pots. They’ll be beautiful, no matter how you choose to style them.

It can be fun to juxtapose the formality of the classic spiral shape with a modern, informal or whimsical container. Try them in welded industrial chic rectangular columns for a fresh, modern take on a classic.

Custom, spiral pruned Dwarf Alberta Spruce also make incredible specimen plants for your patio. They can be planted directly in the garden bed or used in containers on the hardscaped surface.

In the backyard, use several to help lead the eye along a path, or use one to mark a transition point. Use two on either side of an entrance of a special Garden Room, they’ll work just as well here as they did by the front door.

For a unique focal point, use 3, 5, 7 or 9 of them along the length of a planting bed. Underplant with Groundcover Roses, Ivy or another low-maintenance groundcover. Or, stay symmetrical with two or three curved on either side of a large fountain or birdbath.

It’s a good idea to include a Dwarf Alberta Spruce Spiral Topiary to add a bit of structure and winter interest to a higgledy-piggledy Cottage Garden. Use a few for contrast and punctuation in a Butterfly Garden or perennial border.

#ProPlantTips for Care

In general, Dwarf Alberta Spruce trees are hardy and can grow in full sun or part shade. They love evenly moist soil, but never wet.

In colder climates, give the plants protection from dry and windy conditions during the winter months to prevent winter burn on the needles. Give the plants a long drink in late fall to ensure they have adequate moisture going into winter.

They will perform best with at least 6 hours of direct sun but take care around windows. Highly reflective light behind the plants can burn the foliage in winter.

Overall, once they are properly sited in your landscape, these Topiaries are actually very easy care. There is minimal pruning required.

If any pruning is needed, prune just before they start to grow in spring. Use sharp garden shears and simply follow the established lines to clean up any new growth.

For container plants, use a slightly acidic soil mix. Keep containerized plants watered regularly. They will not tolerate “wet feet” or poorly drained soil. Raise containers up with 3 bricks placed in a triangle. You want to ensure good drainage, so position the drain hole over the center of the triangle.
