Abies lasiocarpa cv SILVER MOUNTAIN

Abies lasiocarpa ‘Silver Mountain’ brings a refined alpine presence with a calm, luminous character. This compact fir forms a tidy, upright silhouette that feels balanced and architectural. Needles show a cool silver-blue sheen that reflects light softly. Therefore the plant appears almost frosted from a distance. Branches grow evenly, creating a dense outline that stays elegant through all seasons.

Next, the foliage reveals fine texture and gentle contrast. Each needle carries a silvery underside that brightens shaded areas. The crown develops slowly and keeps a narrow, pyramidal shape without pruning. Gardeners value Abies lasiocarpa ‘Silver Mountain’ for its controlled growth and strong visual calm. Also, young cones add subtle detail, blending purple tones with soft green scales.

• Compact growth suits small gardens and refined landscape compositions.

• Silvery needles create contrast against darker evergreens or stone.

• Slow development ensures long-term structure with minimal maintenance.

• Upright form stays neat without regular pruning needs.

Finally, this fir excels as a focal accent or repeated rhythm in modern designs. Its cool coloration pairs beautifully with grasses and pale gravel. However, it also feels natural in woodland settings. With patience, Abies lasiocarpa ‘Silver Mountain’ matures into a sculptural evergreen that rewards close observation year-round.
