30 Seeds Canaan Fir Abies balsamea var. phanerolepis Evergreen Tree

Canaan Fir is a naturally occurring variety of balsam fir valued for its dense, conical form and glossy dark green needles with silvery undersides. It offers excellent cold hardiness and a classic evergreen silhouette, making it a reliable choice for landscape plantings, windbreaks, and specimen use.
Use Canaan Fir as an ornamental evergreen where a tall, symmetrical tree is desired, or grow it for its traditional conifer form in mixed borders and naturalized areas. Growth is slow to moderate when young, becoming more vigorous once established, with needles that hold color well through winter.
