White Fir
Currently unavailable
This ornamental dwarf conifer showcases a pyramidal yet compact form of the beloved white fir, adorned with slender, powder-blue needles gracefully draping from its branches. It serves as a superb year-round addition to any garden, offering a burst of color. However, it's advisable to avoid planting it in hot, dry, or windy locations. To maintain its desired shape, some selective pruning may be necessary, as this conifer has a prostrate growth habit.
