SUB-ALPINE FIR

描述：

A young Sub-Alpine Fir(Abies lasiocarpa). If Englemann Spruce is the Queen of the sub-alpine forests of the Rockies, than Sub-Alpine Fir is the Princess. Smaller than Spruce, they more than make up for that with there wonderfully fragrant foliage, the strongest smelling conifer I know of. Notice the upright purple cones, characteristic of all true Firs(Abies)
