PICEA ABIES ‘GOLD DRIFT’
A new selection unlike anything else presently available
anywhere. This plant was developed from a sport Bob discovered on a side branch
of Picea abies ‘Reflexa’. The spring growth is lime green but the sun
turns it bright gold by late spring. It then remains gold through the winter,
becoming gold tipped before the new growth appears in the spring. It can trail
over a wall or be staked to become an upright weeper. The full sun causes
burning in the Northwest on young plants which disappears as the plant matures.
