Why Does My Blue Spruce Have So Many \

Question

These blue spruce were planted 2 years ago. This past year they have had lots of cones on them continuously. Is this a problem? Normal?

Answer 1

They can do this when everything is optimal, as far as health goes, and when they are very sick.

In short, it will come down to how the tree looks. If it looks healthy, then it is likely normal. If it looks stressed then it is likely scrambling to reproduce before it dies.
