Bower & Branch Landscape Design Tip: 

Blue conifers read like “instant structure,” especially in winter. If you want the landscape to look crisp year-round, combine one blue evergreen with one deep green evergreen and one plant that brings warm tones. That trio creates balance and contrast in every season.

Why Plant Montgomery Colorado Spruce?

Montgomery Colorado Spruce is chosen for maximum blue and maximum presence. The needles carry a rich silver-blue tone that reads crisp in every season, and the branching is dense enough to give the tree a thick, plush look instead of a see-through outline. Its shape is the classic spruce pyramid, broad at the base and strong through the middle, making it feel established and substantial from the start.

In winter, it really earns its keep: bold color, clean form, and that unmistakable Colorado spruce texture that makes a landscape look anchored and intentional.

How to use Montgomery Colorado Spruce in the landscape?

Use it as a specimen conifer where the blue color can stand out against deep green evergreens or brick and stone backdrops, or incorporate it into a mixed planting to create cool-toned contrast. The silver-blue needles also pair beautifully with burgundy foliage and gold-toned conifers for a high-impact color mix that doesn’t rely on flowers. Give it adequate space to develop its natural broad pyramidal form, and keep the base planting simple so the bold color and dense silhouette remain the focal point.

How Does Shipping Work?

Bower & Branch Trees, the real BIG trees, don’t fit in a box!

*For Big trees and Shrubs, Size XL and bigger: Review our Seasonal Shipping Timelines and Policy here.

Your trees and plants are grown across the United States at various Bower & Branch Growers. Depending on your location, your plant orders may be shipped from various locations. Please expect orders with multiple items to be delivered over a number of days as a result. Orders made up of numerous items or selections will not arrive at your home on the same day.

Shipping Delays:

From time to time, Bower & Branch Growers may determine to delay order shipment based on various factors for plant health. Weather in your region, as well as, where your plants are grown, is always considered when shipping. Extreme weather conditions may delay some or all of your order. Bower & Branch allows our Growers to make final shipping decisions based solely to benefit your trees and plants’ health and success.

How Does Sizing Work?

The size of our trees have nothing to do with the container size like you may find elsewhere–big doesn't mean just height - it’s also vigor, age, and overall health. Other online retailers are going to tell you that a plant is a seven gallon, that means nothing to your tree or plant (or you.)

Our trees for sale online are graded on large, x-large, and even bigger sizes. This is because our trees are sized by their age—the higher the letter, the more mature the tree. The age determines the trees’ overall height, size of the trunk and the overall branch density.

All of these characteristics are what you should be looking for when choosing a tree for immediate impact and instant curb appeal. Our extra-large tree and plant sizes are sure to wow you and your neighbors!
