Why plant Canaan Fir?

Canaan Fir is a refined and elegant evergreen prized for its soft needles, pleasant fragrance, and sturdy conical form.

It offers both functional and ornamental benefits — from screening and wind protection to serving as a centerpiece in holiday décor. Its long lifespan and reliable form make it a lasting investment in the landscape.

How to use Canaan Fir in the landscape?
