5 gal; at nursery only 1 available

Golden-yellow and asymmetrical, 'Gold Drift' is a highly sculptural conifer, a weeping vertical form if encouraged in that direction, or rambling over the terrain if left to its devices. Its color is variable: lime green new growth in spring, brilliant yellow in summer, and softer winter. Fast-growing at 12 – 15"/yr; 6' tall (if staked) and 3' wide in 10 years; ultimately perhaps 12' tall. This is a sport of Picea abies 'Reflexa' found in 1990 by Bob Fincham. While it tolerates full sun, protection from brutal rays is in order while it's young.

Minimum temperature: -50° F

Carefully packed for each plant

Once your order is ready, we bring the plants from our greenhouses into a holding area. Each plant is wrapped by hand and, when needed, staked to protect tender stems. Because our inventory is so diverse, we adjust the packing method for each plant based on its size, type, and stage of growth.

We reuse clean paper and plastic packing materials whenever practical. It is easier on the planet and helps keep shipping costs down for you, too.

Choose your Monday ship date

At checkout, choose from the available Monday ship dates. We ship with UPS from Monmouth, Oregon, and you will receive an email with tracking information when your shipment is prepared or enters the UPS system.

Arrival times vary by destination and weather, so we cannot guarantee a specific delivery date or time.
