Notes
'Horstmann's Silberlocke' Korean fir (Abies koreana 'Horstmann's Silberlocke') is an evergreen tree for specimen, accent, and privacy screen uses. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, loamy soil. Deer tend to pass it by. It grows slowly and keeps an erect shape, so give it space to reach its form without crowding.
Pairs well with Japanese maple, Japanese forest grass, Bouquet peony, and Casa Blanca lily.
