Growth: Slow, roughly 8-10 ft in 10 years
Light: Full sun to partial sun
Soil: Adaptable, prefers well-drained soil; blue spruces generally do not tolerate heavy, wet clay
Central Missouri: Cold hardy zones 3-7, but Colorado spruces often struggle long-term in Missouri's hot humid summers and clay soils, with increased risk of needle cast and canker diseases in the Midwest
