Silver Fir (Abies) is an evergreen conifer. Among them is Balsam Fir, Abies balsamea, which is fragrant, from which several dwarf forms were derived and became popular in small gardens. Balsam Fir will not grow on shallow, chalky soil or in heavily polluted air. So if you live near a busy road, it is best not to try growing it.
Korean fir, Abies koreana forms an attractive cone shape. Its leaves are dark green and bluish on the underside. There are several cultivars, the best known being "Silberlocke", with slightly twisted leaves.
