Abies bornmuelleriana Bolu Kokez Texas native plants are green at the baseWe have only a few plants to spare from our seed grown Turkish Fir, from the Bolu Kokez (Black Sea) region of Turkey. Abies bornmuelleriana has been the most outstanding fir species in our hot humid climate. Our 25 year old garden specimen is now 25' tall, looking quite like our native Abies fraseri, which is intolerant of our heat and humidity.
