The Balsam Fir, which is also referred as Abies balsamea, is generally living in zones around most of northern United States and into Canada. It is usually shaped as evergreen tree, making it an uncommon plant! In the summer, more or less, its foliage is needles are variable, up to 1" long and in the automn its foliage is specially no fall color (evergreen). The Balsam Fir (Abies balsamea) has beautiful flowers that are no ornamental value and grows fruits, characterized as brown resinous cones. Its bark is very interesting, where we see dull green turning gray with age on it. An important information to know about its culture is that easily transplanted because of shallow root system However, a bad thing with the Balsam Fir can be that loses nice "Christmas tree" shape with age A good way to identify a Abies balsamea with its two-ranked needles in a V-shape. The Balsam Fir's propagation method is pretty interesting since it is mainly done by seed, stratification period required for good germination
