🎄 Living Christmas tree, roots and all • ❄️ Decorative snowy tips • 🎁 Delivered in a printed jute cover • 🌲 Hardy down to -30 °C • 📏 H65 cm | Pot Ø17 cm
Picea glauca 'Conica' Snowy in a printed jute cover arrives ready to display: its branches are dusted with a fine decorative snow and its pot slips into a cover of natural jute cloth, decorated with a Christmas tree drawn in white and the message “A very merry Christmas”. The white of the snow and the white motif on the cloth echo each other: the Christmas décor is already there, with no decorative pot to buy. Beneath this frost, it is our dwarf Alberta spruce, descended from a dwarf seedling discovered in 1904 in Canada (Alberta), with a dense, perfectly regular cone.
A few baubles and a string of lights are all it takes to decorate it. After the holidays, it goes back outside without its cover, like all our potted Christmas trees, and gradually regains its natural soft green.
Which version should you choose?
- Picea glauca 'Conica' Snowy in a printed jute cover (this plant) — cone dusted with decorative snow, in its jute cover with a Christmas message, H65 cm | Pot Ø17 cm. The choice for a winter tree ready to give.
- Picea glauca 'Conica' in a printed jute cover — the same cover with a Christmas message, with a tree in its natural soft green, in a Ø17 cm pot. The choice for a Christmas with no added snow.
- Picea glauca 'Conica' Snowy in a basket — the same snowy tree in a woven basket in natural tones, in a Ø17 cm pot. The choice for a chalet style.
- Picea glauca 'Conica' Snowy — the same snowy tree in a plain pot, in Ø17 or Ø19 cm. The choice for dressing it in your own decorative pot.
Light & placement
Like all spruces, it lives outdoors all year round and only spends a short stay indoors for Christmas. Cool air keeps its decorative snow in place; the jute cloth, however, is made for indoors: outside, it does not stand up to rain for long.
- During the holidays: 10 to 15 days indoors, in a cool, bright room, away from radiators and any heat source.
- The rest of the year: outdoors, in sun or partial shade, on a balcony, a terrace or in the garden, without its cover.
- Hardiness: down to -30 °C.
- Avoid: the dry heat of a heated living room for more than two weeks, and leaving the jute cover out in the rain.
Once outdoors, the rain washes away the decorative snow within a few weeks: your tree then regains its soft green foliage, ready to put on new growth in spring.
Watering & care
Water the root ball, never the foliage: water on the branches would spoil the decorative snow. The jute cover hides the pot: the finger test tells you when the soil needs water.
- Indoors: check the root ball every 2 to 3 days; pour the water at the base, then lift the pot out of the cover for a few minutes to let excess water drain away.
- Under the cover: a saucer slipped under the pot protects your furniture from the damp cloth.
- Misting: best avoided during the holidays, to preserve the snow.
- Outdoors in a pot: water as soon as the top few centimetres of soil are dry, more often in summer.
- Fertiliser: a conifer fertiliser in spring.
Decorating ideas & plant combinations
Snow and jute cloth call for a white, natural Christmas: white or light wood baubles, small straw stars, pine cones, linen or natural wool ribbon.
- For an all-white Christmas, place a Helleborus niger 'Christmas Carol' beside it — the white flowers of the Christmas rose extend the snow effect at the foot of the tree, then spend the winter outdoors with it.
- For a touch of soft colour, add a Skimmia japonica 'Finchy': its glossy green leaves and pinkish-white buds warm up the raw tone of the jute without breaking the wintry mood.
- On a windowsill, it fits easily in its Ø17 cm pot and makes the most of the light during its stay indoors — find pairing ideas in our guide to windowsill plants.
- For a different look another winter, slip it into a white ELHO Vibes Fold decorative pot Ø22 cm: its matt white echoes the snowy tips for a clean, bright look.
Verdeia tips
- Carry it by the pot: the decorative snow rubs off with friction — unpack and move it holding it from the bottom, touching the foliage as little as possible.
- Just add a card: the message printed on the cover already does the job of festive wrapping — no need for gift wrap.
- Take it outside without its cover after the holidays: a few days in a sheltered, unheated place, then outdoors, like other cold-hardy plants; store the cover somewhere dry for next Christmas.

Our Verdeia commitments
FAQ – Everything to know before adopting your Verdeia plant
How are my plants prepared before shipping?
All our plants are selected from our European partner nurseries. Before shipping, they are watered, cleaned, and protected with breathable, secure packaging. Each package is designed to ensure your plant arrives in perfect health, without any transport-related stress.
Will the plant look exactly like the photo?
The photos accurately represent the variety and the stated size. Since each plant is unique, slight differences in shape, foliage, or color may occur — and that’s part of their charm.
What are the delivery times and conditions?
Orders ship within 48 working hours, with tracked delivery in 2 to 5 working days via DPD. Shipping costs and the free-shipping threshold depend on your country — see our delivery page. You receive a tracking link as soon as your parcel leaves.
What should I do when my plant arrives?
Open your package as soon as you receive it and carefully remove the plant from its packaging. Let it acclimate for 24 hours in its new environment before watering. If it has been slightly stressed during transport, it will recover its shape after one or two days in the light.
What should I do if my plant arrives damaged?
Contact us within 48 hours with a photo of the issue. Our team will assess the situation and offer you the best solution: replacement, partial refund, or recovery advice.
Can I return a plant?
Since plants are living beings, standard returns are not possible. However, we guarantee good health upon delivery: if the plant arrives damaged, it will be replaced free of charge. For any other cases (order error, decorative pot, accessory), returns are possible within 14 days.
