- 6 years ago I bought a Colorado Blue Spruce in a 10 gal. pot for
- about $45. We use it every year at Christmas and the rest of the
- time it is an outdoor tree. I add times release fertilizer each
- year. it has grown frm about 3 to 41/2 feet.
-
- I figure I have saved quite a bit with this tree. It not only is
- cheapier than buying a cut tree but is a "family tradition"
