Product Description

Abies pindrow, also called the Pindrow Fir, is a tall, elegant coniferous evergreen tree native to the western Himalayan region, especially in Pakistan, India, and Nepal. It features a slender, upright form with graceful, horizontal branches densely covered in glossy dark green needles, each showing silver-white bands on the underside. Its bark is smooth and gray when young, becoming cracked with age. The tree produces erect cylindrical cones that develop from green to brown. Its refined structure and cool-climate tolerance make it a showpiece for high-elevation gardens.
