Concolor firs can be grouped to create a natural screen for privacy. Known for its exceptional color and elegance, white fir is a great alternative to the more commonly used large evergreens.
Needles are glaucous on both sides, giving a blue cast to the upper and underside.
Needles are arranged horizontally on the stem, curving up and out, much like a rib cage. White fir is attractive to many species of wildlife. Deer feed on buds and leaves during winter, porcupines eat the bark and squirrels are fond of the seeds. Grouse may also eat seeds after they fall from the cones. Abies concolor is a 2000 Growers' Choice Award recipient from the Michigan Nursery and Landscape Association.
