Rare?restricted to the Ida Mts in NW Asiatic Turkey, the range of this attractive fir is between that of A.cephalonica and A.bornmuellerana which it resembles with its shiny dark-green needles. S-PSh/M

By: Forestfarm

Very similar to the Nordmann Fir but tougher and faster growing, the Turkish Fir is far more heat tolerant than most other species and is a good choice for the Southwest. The dense foliage is very dark green with bright lime colored new tips in the spring and early summer on a smooth conical branch structure. These trees make excellent living Christmas trees and are also popular for cut Christmas tree growers. The roots are more tolerant of damp soils than most other Fir species and so is a much better choice for irrigated garden landscapes.

Also known as the Black Sea Fir.
