Abies pinsapo 'Kelleris' Web SpecialsThis cultivar of the Spanish fir will grow fairly fast into a narrow pyramidal shape about 25 35 ft tall and 12 ft wide. Beautiful raspberry colored buds appear in spring, and with cones displayed in late summer, vertically along the branches. The needles are flat, blunt and blue in color. The branches tend to weep at the ends, making a very graceful tree. Performs best when given parial shade and ample water in well dreained, acidic soil.
