Below is the beautiful Douglas Fir. Because of its classic triangular Christmas Tree shape, the Douglas Fir is the preferred tree of many visitors to Bell's Christmas Tree Farm. The needles are dark green 1 to 1 1/2 inches long, soft to the touch and radiate out in all directions from the branch.
The Caanan Fir is a short needled tree known for its wonderful fragrance and excellent needle retention. The soft needles are usually green to blue green.
The Concolor Fir, below, is the perfect pyramidal Christmas tree shape with horizontally tiered branches. The short, flat, soft needles are silvery blue-green both above and below and they have a slight citrus smell when broken.
Below is the beautiful Colorado Blue Spruce. The needles range in color from dark green to bright blue. The Colorado Blue Spruce has short, sharp, very strong needles with good needle retention if kept watered. The needles are 1-1 1/2 inches long on lower branches but somewhat shorter on upper branches. They are 4-sided and have a very sharp point on the end. It is this point which gives the species its name "pungens", from the Latin word for sharp, as in puncture wound. Needles are generally dull bluish-gray to silvery blue.
The Balsam Fir is a medium-sized tree, exhibiting a relatively dense, dark-green, pyramidal crown with a slender spire-like tip. Below is a close view of the classic Balsam Fir
