Picea Omorika, also known as Serbian Spruce, is a coniferous tree native to the mountainous regions of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, and Montenegro. It is a slow-growing, evergreen tree that can reach heights of up to 50 meters, with a conical crown and horizontal branches. The Serbian Spruce is prized for its dense, dark green foliage that forms a striking contrast against its gray-brown bark. The needles of the Picea Omorika are short and stiff, measuring between 1-2 cm in length, and are arranged in spirals around the branches. In the spring, the Picea Omorika produces small, inconspicuous flowers that develop into light brown cones, measuring between 8-15 cm in length. The cones are a valuable source of food for a variety of wildlife, including birds and small mammals. Picea Omorika is a hardy tree that is well-suited to cooler climates and is often used in landscaping and as an ornamental tree in parks and gardens. It requires well-drained soil and full sun to thrive, and is relatively resistant to pests and diseases.

About Us

During this time, we have developed a large stock of trees, mature evergreen shrubs, conifers, Japanese maples, cedars and olives. What sets us apart from a generic garden center is solid unwavering focus on trees and some bigger shrubs. You will find thousands of trees, hundreds of varieties and lots of experts who are working on the nursery and more than willing to help you to choose a plant for you.

What you will not find is hot tubs, garden furniture and plastic garden gnomes. In a nutshell, trees is what we know and trees is what we do, and only trees (and some shrubs to go with the trees).
