A Fragrant Canadian Classic for Landscapes and Christmas Trees.

The Balsam Fir (Abies balsamea) is an iconic native tree of Canada, prized for its symmetrical spire-like shape and famously fragrant needles. Typically reaching heights of 15–20 m, it serves as a majestic specimen for larger landscapes and remains a premier choice in the Christmas tree industry. While its wood is valued for pulp and lumber, gardeners appreciate it as a hardy, deer-resistant evergreen that provides year-round structure and shelter for local wildlife.
