Abies koreana 'Horstmann's Silberlocke'

Description

The needles of this seldom-encountered fir are strongly curved upright. New growth exposes a brilliant white undersurface, giving the impression of an exuberantly flocked Noble Fir. Ever eye-catching, it possesses the same remarkable cones of steely blue found on the species. Grows to 20 feet or more over 15-20 years. Full sun is best in average garden loam.
