By Home & Garden Last updated Friday, May/24/2024

1). Wait until the spring and walk around the yard to find a location that has well-drained soil and full sunlight. The soil type does not matter since the weeping Norway spruce will grow in a variety of pH levels including acidic and alkaline soil.
2). Remove all weeds and existing vegetation from the area by pulling them out with your hands.
3). Loosen the soil to a 2-inch depth using a a bow rake.
4). Spread the weeping Norway spruce seeds over the prepared soil, spacing them at distances of approximately 4 to 5 feet apart. If desired, you can plant the seeds closer and weed some out once they germinate.
5). Cover the seeds with topsoil, or rake the area with the bow rake to ensure that the seeds are covered with at least 1/2 inch of soil.
6). Water the soil until it is completely saturated. Thereafter, water the soil as often as needed to keep the surface constantly moist, but not soggy, until the seeds germinate.
