Description
Native to the Pacific Northwest, grand fir is one of the largest fir varieties. The largest known grand fir in the wild is 335′ tall, with a diameter of 6’7 at four foot off of the ground. They thrive in rich soils that are well drained and can tolerate some shade. A cold weather fir, they prefer to be no further south than zone 6. Grand firs are grown as both Christmas trees and a landscaping tree. For the past few years, we have grown them here on the farm for cut Christmas trees. They are turning out to be a beautiful choice and they have an amazing citrus smell when the needles are crushed.
