Grand fir is a large evergreen conifer that can grow up to 70 meters (230 feet) tall.
It is native to the Pacific Northwest and Northern California of North America, where it is found at altitudes of sea level to 1,700 meters (5,600 ft).
Grand fir is a fast-growing tree that can reach maturity in as little as 60 years.
It has a conical crown with drooping branches.
The bark is thin and reddish-brown, and the needles are flattened, dark green, and 2-3 centimeters (0.8-1.2 inches) long.
The seed cones are cylindrical and 4-6 centimeters (1.6-2.4 inches) long.
Grand fir is a shade-tolerant tree that can grow in a variety of soils, but it prefers moist, well-drained soils.
It is a popular tree for timber and Christmas trees.
The wood of grand fir is strong and lightweight, and it is used for a variety of purposes, including construction, furniture, and flooring.
Grand fir is a popular Christmas tree because it has long-lasting needles and a pleasant scent.
The tree is also a source of nectar for bees and other pollinators.
Grand fir is susceptible to a number of pests and diseases, including the balsam woolly adelgid, which can kill young trees.
However, grand fir is a relatively resilient tree and can often recover from damage.
