Grand, or Giant, Fir is a tall, evergreen tree with short, dense branches and a narrow crown; it grows to a height of 130 to 260 feet, making it one of the tallest firs. Its needles lie perfectly flat on twigs, like teeth on a comb, and swellings on the bark contain fragrant resin. This tree grows best in partial shade and well-drained soils.
