Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Compact growth on this dwarf fir is light-green when new, darkening to a rich, glossy green in summer. The slow growth and dense branch structure make it a choice dwarf fir.
DWARF. A nice green cultivar that will grow to about 3'. The flat, fanlike placement of the branchlets creates planes in its form giving it added interest.
