Whoa! I've never seen such a Picea Abies before, although they're native to my area. Well, maybe that's just the problem.
They might just grow too well here! And, as they are very common here, they aren't sold anywhere. It's a shame, judging by your find.

Does it get chilly there in the winter? Doesn't matter. You see, when you put most of your trees in the garage, the spruce hasn't even noticed the autumn coming.
The spruces live in all places in Finland, in Lapland too, where the temps may drop down to -30 dergees centigrade (-22F). Even then the only thing they may be suffering from is the weight of snow on the branches (natural bending ).

What part are you going to air layer? I realise it's somewhere up, but where exactly?


Good growing,
Zeb
