Douglas Fir
White Fir (Concolor Fir)

Douglas Fir is a large coniferous tree with a pyramidal shaped crown.

This attractive feature tree, with its distinctive drooping cones, is perfect for any grower who has lots of space and lives in a warm enough region. Douglas Firs make exceptional Christmas trees.

It is not suitable to all growing environments. Do some research and make sure this tree is right for you.

Our seed source is typically from the interior of BC and rocky mountain areas. We do not produce coastal seed source Douglas Fir as it is better suited to its native range and some taxonomists believe the two seed sources might be distinct.

White Fir is an attractive, cold hardy tree that is known for its excellent adaptation to difficult sites. Also a favorite among Christmas tree growers, this tree has high needle retention, dense foliage, and a beautiful pyramidal shape.

You'll love the silver blue-green color that pops on a winter landscape. Try planting in your front yard as a stunning specimen or ornamental tree.
