About Grand Fir
Native to Southwestern British Columbia down into Northern California and east into Montana, Grand Fir is a very large, deep green tree, which, unlike most firs, grows in lowlands rather than mountains. Also known as "Giant Silver Fir" and "Lowland Fir" (among other common names), this Fir's needles are 3/4 to 2.5 inches long, and arranged in thin layers, almost as if pressed in a book. When bruised, Grand Fir needles smell like Christmas.
Grand Firs grow somewhat more rapidly than other Firs — attaining mature heights greater than 300 feet and sturdy trunks (up to 10 feet across) — but their lifespans are somewhat shorter than many other Firs (around 400 years). This species makes a very fine ornamental or living Christmas Tree.
About Jonsteen's Seedlings
All of our trees are seed-grown at our nursery on California's Redwood Coast, which is inspected monthly and licensed by the California Department of Agriculture. Trees can provide a natural barrier against high winds, temperatures, noise pollution and soil erosion, all while benefiting local air quality, wildlife and property values — a Jonsteen seedling will only grow in value and beauty!
About Jonsteen's 100% Guarantee
All of our trees are guaranteed to arrive healthy and in good condition. If your tree perishes despite your honest efforts, we will be happy to replace it with a small-sized seedling for just the cost of shipping/handling (typically around $5). You can learn more about our guarantee and tree replacement policy here.
Seedling Size Chart: Small
Due to the dynamic nature of actively growing trees, as well as the tremendous variation between species’ growth rates, we rely on the cubic volume of a seedling’s root mass to determine its “size” (Small / Medium / Large / XL). Within each size there is minor variance — the dimensions provided here represent the category minimum. If exact measurements are essential, please contact us about current stock.
