Balsam Fir, otherwise known as Blister Pine and Northern Basalm, is an evergreen tree that grows to a height of 45 to 75 feet and a spread of 20 to 25 feet at maturity. It yields cones 2 to 4 inches in length and seed crops that occur at 2 to 4 year intervals. The needle foliage is browsed by wildlife including deer, while the seeds and buds are a good food source for birds. Balsam Fir is slow-growing, doing best in full sun to partial shade and rich, moist, well-drained soils.
