Norway spruce can grow 80 to 100 feet tall and spread 25 to 40 feet in North America, though some cultivars are shrub like. It is the official Christmas tree displayed each Christmas at Rockefeller Center in New York City.

Small-diameter branches sweep horizontally from the straight trunk which can grow to four feet thick. Branchlets droop from the branches toward the ground in a graceful, weeping fashion forming a delicate pyramid and makes a great landscape Christmas tree.

if you are in the US, you can contact your conservation department for the state you live in. They actually sell trees about 3′ in height for about $7 for a bundle of 25.
