{"product_id":"horstmanns-silberlocke-korean-fir","title":"Horstmann's Silberlocke Korean Fir","description":"\u003cp\u003eHorstmann's Silberlocke Korean Fir (Abies koreana 'Horstmann's Silberlocke') is an upright pyramidal fir whose needles curl upward to show their silver-white undersides, reaching 15 to 20 feet tall and 6 to 10 feet wide in zones 5 through 7. From a distance the whole canopy looks frosted, and that effect holds every month of the year.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe curled needle is what sets this cultivar apart from a straight Korean Fir, where the silver stays hidden underneath. Silberlocke also cones young. Upright violet-purple cones stand on the upper branches of plants that are still small, a trait most firs make you wait decades for.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGive it a spot with room to develop its shape, since it is a specimen rather than a hedge plant. It works as a single focal point at the corner of a house, along a drive where you see it from both sides, or as a living landscape tree you decorate in place.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLight: full sun, with afternoon shade where summers run hot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWater: deep and regular the first two seasons, then as needed in drought\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoil: well drained and acidic, avoid heavy wet clay\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCare: prune only to remove damaged wood, keep a mulch ring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdd Horstmann's Silberlocke Korean Fir to your cart.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nature Hills Nursery","offers":[{"title":"#1 Container","offer_id":62370643607922,"sku":"24067","price":69.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0623\/6356\/6133\/files\/2E6A3412.jpg?v=1790188738","url":"https:\/\/naturehills.com\/products\/horstmanns-silberlocke-korean-fir","provider":"Nature Hills Nursery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
