What this page adds
The grand fir is a very tall, narrow evergreen tree with flat, shiny, dark green needles arranged in two neat rows. Its bark is smooth and gray when young, becoming furrowed and reddish-brown with age, often holding distinctive upright, purple-green cones near the top.
Grand firs have white stripes on the underside of their needles, which look like tiny racing tracks!
Scratch its bark gently, and you might smell a sweet scent, like oranges or even pineapple!
These trees can grow so tall, they sometimes provide homes for animals like spotted owls high in the canopy!
