Looking for the perfect Christmas tree? Look no further than Abies nordmanniana, also known as the Caucasian Fir or Nordmann Fir. The Bakuriana origin replaces the Borshomi origin, one of the best regions for Christmas tree production. Bakuriana has an elevation of between 4500 and 5300 feet. This evergreen coniferous tree is native to the mountains south and east of the Black Sea in Turkey, Georgia, Russian Caucasus and northern parts of Armenia, and is a popular choice for Table Top Christmas Trees.
The Abies nordmanniana from this source is particularly prized for its dark green needles and attractive foliage.
This large tree can grow up to 60 metres in height and have a trunk diameter of up to 2 metres. Its needle-like leaves are glossy dark green above and have two blue-white bands of stomata below.
The Nordmann Fir is not just valued for its festive beauty. It is also a popular ornamental tree in parks and large gardens, while its soft, white wood is used for general construction and paper production.
So why wait? Get your own Nordmann Fir today and enjoy its beauty year-round.
