"White Cloud" Concolor
Fir
The White cloud
Concolor fir is native to a remote,
small colony of trees in southern
Colorado. The tree has a silver-white
bloom that makes it truly unique
The seed orchard picture above which
was taken at the arboreturm shows
a ten-year-old tree. Small plants
will be availbable to the public
in the future. |

Balsam
Korean Fir
This is a lovely
combination of both trees. A Canadian
botonist brought these two tree species
together although they were originally
worlds apart. another aspect of the
arboretum's mission is to hybridize
some of the Chinese firs with western
and European firs. However, arboretum
specimens at this time, are only
five years old. |
