Grow one of North America's most iconic evergreen trees with this set of 3 live Douglas Fir rooted seedlings. Pseudotsuga menziesii var. menziesii is prized for its dense evergreen foliage, classic pyramidal form, and adaptability in landscapes. It is commonly planted as a specimen tree, privacy screen, windbreak, and is also popular for bonsai enthusiasts.

This listing includes 3 live rooted seedlings measuring approximately 8–14 inches tall at the time of shipping. Each seedling is grown in a nursery pot but ships rooted in soil with the pot removed for shipping to help reduce shipping weight and protect the root system during transit.

Douglas Fir thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-drained acidic to neutral soil. It is suitable for USDA Hardiness Zones 5–8 and is native to the Pacific Northwest from British Columbia to Northern California.
