Large conifer with a broad, pyramidal crown and side branches growing horizontally at even intervals. Specimens as old as 500 years and as high as 60 m can be found in its natural area of distribution. It ultimately grows to a width of 7 - 9 m. Given adequate space around the tree, the lower branches remain on the tree. Young specimens grow slowly, but as the tree ages, growth quickens somewhat. The young branches are olive green and the small buds do not have any sap. In the winter, the buds turn reddish brown. The shiny, dark green needles have 2 white stripes underneath. After the tree bears striking flowers, upright green cones appear in autumn and then turn brown. Abies nordmanniana was discovered by A. von Nordmann, director of the Odessa botanical gardens in the early 19th century, when on a search through the Caucasus.
Our trees can only be planted when they don't have any leaves. Due to the this we will start delivering again from November 2024.
Abies nordmanniana can eventually reach a height of 25 - 30 (60) m, depending on the site and climate conditions.
Abies nordmanniana is average growing and can eventually reach a height of 25 - 30 (60) m, depending on the site and climate conditions.
The right time to plant Abies nordmanniana is during the dormancy period. In Western Europe, Abies nordmanniana with root balls can generally be planted from mid-November to late April, although this depends strongly on the climatic conditions and the species of tree.
