An evergreen conifer species that is native to the western Himalayan mountains, from Afghanistan to Nepal.

This gorgeous conifer has a narrow, pyramidal form that holds short, almost horizontal branches. The bark on young trees is smooth and gray, then becomes thick, gray-brown, and vertically furrowed with age.  New needles are bright, fresh green then age to deep glossy green. Large, upright cones stand on top of the branches and are deep purple when new, and then turn dark brown.

Our stock of Abies pindrow is grafted on to either Abies balsamea var. phanerolepsis or Abies firma rootstock.

Mature size: In the high elevations (6500-9,000 ft) of the Himalayas A. pindrow can reach 180 ft tall; however it has not been seen to reach more than 90 ft tall in cultivation. 

Minimum temperature: 10° F

Carefully packed for each plant

Once your order is ready, we bring the plants from our greenhouses into a holding area. Each plant is wrapped by hand and, when needed, staked to protect tender stems. Because our inventory is so diverse, we adjust the packing method for each plant based on its size, type, and stage of growth.

We reuse clean paper and plastic packing materials whenever practical. It is easier on the planet and helps keep shipping costs down for you, too.

Choose your Monday ship date

At checkout, choose from the available Monday ship dates. We ship with UPS from Monmouth, Oregon, and you will receive an email with tracking information when your shipment is prepared or enters the UPS system.

Arrival times vary by destination and weather, so we cannot guarantee a specific delivery date or time.
