no... a boreal forest plant like a blue spruce needs a cold season or it will die.

Like the first answer, No! Way to hot! I have tried growing Blue spruces in Florida and they all die due to scald. They do better in a cool and shady areas but even with that it is still to hot. Growing Colorado Blue Spruces in Florida is a huge no no!

No. First of all, it is too hot for them. Second, Florida's soil has way too much coral with all it's odd minerals that a blue spruce could not survive.
