Discover the versatility and beauty of Manchurian Fir, Abies holophylla, a majestic species that thrives in diverse climates including the Midwest and Mid-Atlantic regions. Known for its heat tolerance, Manchurian Fir also withstands severe winter temperatures down to -30°F, making it incredibly hardy and adaptable. Its aesthetic appeal lies in its striking bright green foliage and its graceful transition from a youthful pyramidal shape to a mature, wide-spreading, horizontal branching pattern. Native to the mountains and valleys of North and South Korea, northeastern China, and far southeastern Russia, this evergreen tree often towers above the forest canopy, reaching heights over 100 feet.

A valuable timber tree within its native range, Manchurian Fir's wood is prized for various uses such as construction, furniture, plywood, and veneer, thanks to its light, evenly grained texture. Despite its utility and beauty, it remains relatively unknown outside arboreta and botanical gardens since its introduction in 1905. Ideal for any landscape, Manchurian Fir offers a robust, non-invasive, and visually stunning addition to your garden. Experience one of nature's finest adaptations with the Manchurian Fir, the perfect fusion of resilience and elegance.
