Henk those are outstanding plants and photos, thanks for sharing and please don't stop! :) Stephen, I've attached a link to a source. I am thinking you are probably right but without a confirmation somewhere along the line, I don't want to assume. It's still possible there are two similar plants/names but I'll be in your corner for now, suggesting that it is probably 'Jamie'. A few more I can add as this post picks up steam: Abies balsamea 'Jorma'. As shared originally by Matt and Dave in early threads, a newer plant coming from Edelweiss nursery. Abies balsamea 'Weeping Larry'. I believe found by Larry Stanley, a rare weeping form with an upright main leader(ala Picea omorika 'Pendula Bruns'. My trained leader was damaged, now waiting for a new one to emerge. A nice deep green color, older plants are very narrow. Abies balsamea 'Wolcott Pond'. A dwarf found by Greg Williams, eventually forms an upright dwarf, at a few inches a year. Abies balsamea 'Frozen Fingers'. Another new introduction from Edelweiss nursery. Looks very very small. I gave it a place of honor next to some of my other really small fellas(and ladies). -Will Here is a link that might be useful: Abies balsamea 'Jamy'('Jamie'??)

Hi Clement, Purple cones. I found it and grafted from that photo my own plant from 2007 and that graft is now about 6" tall. I wouldn't call it exceptional. Don't know enough to tell you though. Seems much more narrow than typical koreana. Dax

Thanks for adding to the gallery guys. Seems a bit strange for me to keep posting to myself! :) Thanks for the compliments too, hearing it from conifer legends always makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside. More more and more! This is madness!... Picea abies 'Suncrest'. New to me, a nice tight, bluish color miniature, bought at Coenosium Gardens. 'Gold Dust'. An unusually 'leggy' small dwarf with highly unusual colors as the new foliage eventually becomes more golden and mixes well with the older blue/green. 'Perry's Gold'. Pretty bright! New growth eventually reverts to a more dark green. This specimen is in almost full shade. Awesome! 'Vermont Gold' A sport from 'Repens' I believe, grows laterally into a wide shrub, new growth is delicately gold and burns in full sun here. 'Clanbrassiliana Stricta'. A bit more of a cone shaped dwarf. 'Nidiformis'. Common, available at many box stores and in my opinion, still a pretty nice plant. 'Hasin'. Doing some wierd things, I'd better take a look and prune back that barberry! Usually a super-tight miniature similar to 'Dumpy'. 'Malena'. A great looking small dwarf with unusual needle shape, mine received too much sun last year, suffered some damage and this Winter found a new home. 'Aarburg'. A twisting, weeping, chaotic 'Dr. Suess' tree. Saw it for the first time at Coenosium Gardens and had to have one. Eventually gets pretty wide(not too tall), but I think it will be happy enough here in 5-6 hours of sun. Picea abies seems to handle part shade very well. Many of mine are in filtered sun with 3-4 hours of direct sun. 'Gold Drift'. Only one of the best, a strongly weeping, fast growing tree essential to any conifer collection. More when I have time, please feel free to add some of yours. -Will

Abies numidica 'Pendula'. Young plant acquired from Porterhowse. Sits next to many of my other pendulous plants above a six foot rock wall. Should be fun. Abies numidica 'Select'. A great looking tree, similar to Abies pinsapo with stiff, upright needles. It also has a wonderful silvery cast and I can't wait to see the cones! This specimen was surely grafted from a side-branch cut and doesn't know yet to go up! At times, like most collectors I assume, I wish I had several acres to plant all the various wonderful, full-sized specimens. Fortunately I am close to an enormous botanical garden(which will gladly accept transplants) and I am slowly 'acquiring' neighborhood property as I run out of space. The neighbors, for the most part, are very willing to 'volunteer' their property to new conifer plantings - and all I have to do is the work - they pay for the plants and supplies. Nothing like driving to your house and admiring all your hard work and the plants you've helped spread around. -Will
