´Aurea´ is a full bodied dwarf Korean Fir. We stake this slightly irregular grower to an upright form. The late spring and summer sun paint the exposed needles with golden color, while those surfaces shielded from the solar paint brush retain their green undersides. The color and texture of this slow growing variety make it a useful point of interest to garden areas with some protection from the full afternoon sunshine.
