Abies koreana Aurea
Lemon yellow needles with glowing, silver white undersides are displayed on the ascending branches of this outstanding specimen in spring. The yellow gradually softens as the season progresses, but complementary purple-blue cones add to the dramatic effect. Full sun produces the best color, but plants benefit from some protection if grown in scorching conditions. Over time, with staking, 'Aurea' becomes a large, pyramidal tree.
