In the southwest, the sub-alpine firs(Abies lasiocarpa var arizonica) are a little different in that they have more furrowed bark.

Abies concolor (Gord. & Glend.) Lindl. ex Hildebr.The usually upwardly pointing needles are sickle-shaped and like Subalpine fir, A. lasiocarpa, have an upper surface with a median white band and a lower surface with two lower bands separated by a midvein. The ends of the needles are usually blunt and not notched as in Subalpine fir, and not radially arranged.

This cone is protected by about 2 feet of snow - located around 4100ft above sea level on Mount Mansfield. I shot from underneath to get a clear view of it - one of my Flickr friends loves cones : ). Cheers, Paul

A young Sub-Alpine Fir(Abies lasiocarpa). If Englemann Spruce is the Queen of the sub-alpine forests of the Rockies, than Sub-Alpine Fir is the Princess. Smaller than Spruce, they more than make up for that with there wonderfully fragrant foliage, the strongest smelling conifer I know of. Notice the upright purple cones, characteristic of all true Firs(Abies)

2013-01-12 Vienna, district III., Arsenal (near Schweizergarten), cultivars - Excursion Fischer (198 msm Quadrant 7864/1).German name: Spanische Tanne (Pinsapo-Tanne)This fir native to Spain is rare in its homeland, and (rather seldom) cultivated for its exotic appearance (short needles for a fir tree, and looking quite different from 'ordinary' firs; also nice flowers and cones).

A young Abies concolor growing at about its lowest known elevation in northern Utah.The Flora of North America shows a lower limit of 1700 meters for this species. And it is most commonly known from midmontane to montane elevations. The Utah Flora series states a lower elevation range of 1525 m (5,000 ft.) for this species in Utah although that lower limit is also too high (and speaking of high, in Utah it is known from elevations as high as 3050 m, i.e. 10,000 ft.), There are records of this species occurring at much lower elevations in other states, principally in Oregon (in the 400 to 800 meter range).Growing here with Cercocarpus ledifolius (at far left), Quercus gambelii, and Artemisia tridentata (subsp. wyomingensis suspected). The gravels and large rocks are mostly associated with the granite-like Little Cottonwood igneous intrusive stock.Popular as Christmas trees, White fir should be more popularly used for landscaping at appropriate elevations which would include upper foothill locations as this natural space demonstrates.March 21, 2008, Sandy, Utah, elev. 5015 ft. (1530 m).
