Description
The New Hamshire State Forest Nursery states: Fraser Fir, Abies fraseri - Physical characteristics similar to balsam fir but slower growing with excellent needle retention and good resistance to early spring frosts. These beautiful trees have soft but firm medium to dark-green needles with a silvery underside. The fresh cut aroma lasts and lasts. Prefers moderately well-drained soil on cool sites.
