Elf is a true miniature garden plant with a growth-rate of less than one inch per year - despite it being called a "dwarf." ("Miniature" and "Dwarf" are the growth rates, not the description of the plant.)
It's a darling tight globe shape in a lovely emerald green. The tiny thin needles can suit any scale as a big tree for 1/4" scale or a small shrub for larger 1/20 G scale, garden railway. A very nice tree in limited supply.
**WINTER 2021 - this latest batch of Elf Miniature Spruces are pre-bonsai, which means they are bigger than usual and very well rooted. They will need to be potted-forward to a larger pot or planted directly in a miniature garden NOW, before the spring growth. **
- Poster Child for the best-selling book, Gardening In Miniature, by Yours Truly, Janit Calvo, the photo for the cover was taken in 2012. The garden still exists today.
