All of our trees are compatible with growing zones 4 and 5. Click here to see what zone you are located in prior to selecting a tree. Planting trees in zones they are not compatible with, will result in a tree that either does not grow or grows poorly.
Fraser Fir (Abies fraseri)
Fraser fir is a uniformly pyramid-shaped tree which reaches a maximum height of about 80 feet and a diameter of 1-1.5 feet. Strong branches are turned slightly upward which gives the tree a compact appearance. The needles are flattened, dark-green with a medial groove on the upper side and two broad silvery-white bands on the lower surface. Needles are 1/2 to one inch long, have a broad circular base, and are usually dark green on the upper surface and lighter on the lower surface. On lower branches, needles are two-ranked (occurring in two opposite rows). On upper twigs, needles tend to curl upward forming a more "U-shaped" appearance.

Balsam Fir (Abies balsamea)
Balsam fir is a medium-sized tree generally reaching 40-60 feet in height and 1-1 1/2 feet in diameter. It exhibits a relatively dense, dark-green, pyramidal crown with a slender spire-like tip. The scientific name "balsamea" is an ancient word for the balsam tree, so named because of the many resinous blisters found in the bark. Individual needles are somewhat flat and may be blunt or notched at the end. Needles have a broad circular base and are usually dark green on the upper surface, lighter on the lower surface.

White Pine (Pinus stobuus)
The largest pine in the U.S., the White Pine has soft, flexible needles and is bluish-green in color. Needles are 2½ - 5 in. long. White Pine's have good needle retention, but have little aroma. It is a truly magnificent tree attaining a height of 80 feet or more at maturity with a diameter of two to three feet. The needles are soft, flexible and bluish-green to silver green in color and are regularly arranged in bundles of five. Needles are 2 1/2-5 inches long and are usually shed at the end of the second growing season. Both male and female flowers (strobili) occur on the same tree, with pollination occurring in spring. Cones are 4-8 inches in length, usually slightly curved and mature at the end of the second season. Cone scales are rather thin and never have prickles. Cones also have exudations of a fragrant gummy resin.

Norway Spruce (Picea abies)
In Europe, Norway spruce grows from 130 to 215 feet in height, but in the United States is seldom more than 130 feet tall. Diameter may reach as much as two feet on older trees. It is readily identified by its dark green needles and drooping branchlets. Trees have dark green crown with a triangular shape. The needles are 4-sided (rectangular in section), 1/2-1 inch long, and sharp or somewhat blunt at the tip. At the base of each needle is a twig-like projection (sterigmata) which remains after the needle is lost. Although sometimes confused with true firs (Abies), spruces in general have 1) rectangular rather than flat needles, and 2) cones which hang down rather than stand erect on the stem. Additionally, spruce cones fall from the tree after seeds are disseminated, whereas fir cones disintegrate.
