Abies Koreana 'Blauer Pfiff'

Blauer Pfiff Korean Fir

bies koreana ‘Blauer Pfiff’ is a compact, dwarf selection of Korean fir prized for its bright silvery-blue needles and dense, tidy habit. Short, curved needles are held upright along the branches, with vivid white undersides that create a strong blue effect year-round.

Slow growing, it forms a rounded to low-pyramidal shape, staying naturally compact with little to no pruning. In time, it may produce decorative purple-violet cones, adding seasonal interest even on young plants.

‘Blauer Pfiff’ prefers full sun to partial shade and moist, well-drained, slightly acidic soils. It performs best in cooler climates and is hardy in USDA Zones 5–7. An excellent choice for rock gardens, foundation plantings, containers, and mixed conifer beds, this cultivar is valued for its intense color, small size, and refined texture.
