Known also as Southern Balsam Fir. Grows to 60 ft. Should reach 6 ft. in 6-7 years., beginning with a 5-yr. transplant.

Very soft, shiny, bright green foliage is silver on the underside. Likes cool, moist, well drained soil. Will not do well in heavy, wet, clay soil. Does not require full sun. Needs only light shearing.

This tree is not indigenous to Georgia and will only grow above 3,000 feet above sea level.  The particular Frasier Firs brought in to Lovell Tree Farm this year were grown in North Carolina.
