Noble fir Abies procera glauca

Cultivation Noble fir
The Noble fir develops like a conifer. The Noble fir develops growing in height, and develops a bare stem, creating a thick crown. This plant in the winter assumes a greenblue colouring; it is medium in size and can reach 15 m high. It keeps its leaves in the winter.

Light Noble firPosizione mezza ombra
It prefers partially shady locations, where it can be reached by the solar rays only during the coolest hours of the day. The Noble fir bears even very harsh temperatures, therefore it can be grown outdoors without feeling endangered by low temperatures.During the winter young plants could need a light protection from the wind or cold; when putting the very young specimens, with a thin stem, in shelter, we should provide them with a high stake to keep them erect.

Water Noble firTenere Umido
The Noble fir Needs regular watering, but we suggest letting the soil dry between one watering and the other; let's take action every 2-3 weeks , remembering to water the substratum well with 2-3 buckets of water . The young specimens, recently sheltered, need more cures compared to the adult specimens: as the years go by the development of a good radical apparatus allows the plant to be satisfied with the rain, without needing other waterings.

Pests Noble fir
The spring weather, with a high temperature swing between the day and night hours, and pretty frequent rains, can favour the development of fungus diseases, which should be treated pre-emptively with a systemic fungicide, to use before the gems grow excessively; at the end of the winter we also suggest a wide range insecticide to prevent the attack of aphids and cochineals. We should always remember to do these treatments when there aren't flowerings in the garden.

Mold Noble fir
These trees love quite soft, not too drained, soils.
