Cut from the southern Appalachian Mountains, its fragrance, appearance, strong twigs, and ability to retain its soft needles for a long time when cut (which do not prick easily when hanging ornaments) make it an excellent choice for Christmas trees. Fraser fir grows best in full sun to light shade and moist, well-drained, acidic, loamy soil.
