The White fir, of the species Abies concolor, is a beautiful tree and very popular with our customers. The needles generally grow up on the branch and each needle is somewhat flat. It varies from a bluish to a greenish shade. Its layered branches are nicely spaced, giving plenty of room for easy decorating. White Firs are a slower growing species, but well worth the wait. Be sure to put your White Fir in water as soon as possible after cutting for maximum needle retention.
