Fix leaking sprinklers, valves, and pipes.

  • Description

  • Notes

Korean Fir is a slow growing, small statured fir, growing 15 to 30 feet high and about 15 to 20 feet wide. It's most notable characteristic is probably its rich violet-purple cone. May be slightly more heat tolerant than other firs, but still would prefer a cooler climate; better suited to the east bench areas, perhaps, or a sheltered site.
