Seeds of the Coast Douglas Fir tree, also known as the Oregon Pine and Columbian Pine.

Truly a magnificent giant of the pacific northwest, it is believed that Douglas Fir trees reached heights of over 400 feet tall before they were logged by settlers, making them even taller that the coastal redwoods of California. (A size of 70 to 240 feet is more typical)

The Douglas Fir is also considered to be of ornamental value for large parks and gardens, and is commonly used as a Christmas tree. The pine leaves can be used to make pine-needle tea.

You will receive 10 cones, ready to plant.

Planting Information:
-Prefers acidic or neutral soils (soils with medium to high component of organic material) but is adaptable to other soil types.
-Hardy to USDA zone 4 and up.
-Sunlight: shade tolerant when young, requires more sunlight when older.

IMPORTANT: Douglas fir seeds require a cold (stratification) period prior to planting. Soak in water for 24 hours then store them in the crisper drawer of your refrigerator for 4 weeks. Then, plant the seeds underneath 2 inches of soil.
