Morton's Tower Weeping White Spruce

Morton's Tower is recorded here as a weeping form of white spruce, with branches held close to the trunk and blue-green evergreen foliage. Glover Nursery's product page describes 'Morton Tower' as a narrow weeping accent that can also serve as a screen or windbreak, and notes that afternoon shade is suitable.

Its evergreen foliage and vertical form can anchor a planting or add structure along a screen. The source page lists full sun, partial sun, afternoon shade and filtered sun; its height and width figures are estimates for cultivated plants and can vary with age and site. ## Growing conditions Choose well-drained soil and avoid a persistently waterlogged planting site. Glover lists moderate water needs and several light exposures, including afternoon shade. Water deeply while the tree establishes, then adjust watering to local rainfall and soil conditions. ## Maintenance Keep the root flare visible, water the root ball thoroughly after planting and apply mulch without piling it against the trunk. Inspect the narrow crown as it grows and prune only to remove damaged or unwanted branches, preserving its natural weeping outline.
