Firs are among the most well-known and beautiful conifers. They are found across the Northern Hemisphere in cold climates, but a few species can be found in Mediterranean or more tropical climates, particularly in mountainous regions. Because of their preference for cool, moist conditions, they can be a challenge to keep healthy in the Sacramento region.
Still, firs remain popular for their soft, dark, green foliage, and slender, symmetrical form. For that reason, this section will include several of the more heat and drought adapted species that are worthy of further trials in our area.
