The White Fir is a spectacular large conifer especially suited for colder parts of the country. It is hardy to minus 40 degrees, and loves cold winters and cool summers. It grows into a dramatic spire-like tree, with a strong central trunk and horizontal branching.  The long needles are an elegant pale blue-green color, and the large cones are dramatically purple in winter. Plant this wonderful tree as a specimen in a larger lawn, as boundary markers on your property line, or as part of a collection of beautiful trees.
