 '''Korean Fir''' (''Abies koreana''; 구상나무, ''Gusang namu'' in [[Korean language|Korean]]) is a [[fir]] native to the higher [[mountain]]s of [[South Korea]], including [[Jeju-do]] [[island]]. It grows at altitudes of 1,000-1,900 m in [[temperate rain forest]] with high rainfall and cool, humid summers, and heavy winter snowfall.
-It is a small to medium-sized [[evergreen]] [[Pinophyta|coniferous]] [[tree]] growing to 10-18 m tall with a trunk diameter of up to 0.7 m, smaller and sometimes [[shrub]]by at [[tree line]]. The bark is smooth with resin blisters and grey-brown in colour. The [[leaf|leaves]] are needle-like, flattened, 1-2&nbsp;cm long and 2-2.5&nbsp;mm wide by 0.5&nbsp;mm thick, glossy dark green above, and with two broad, vividly white bands of [[stomata]] below, and slightly notched at the tip. The leaf arrangement is spiral on the shoot, but with each leaf variably twisted at the base so they lie mostly either side of and above the shoot, with fewer below the shoot. The shoots are green-grey at first, maturing pinkish-grey, with scattered fine pubescence. The [[conifer cone|cones]] are 4-7&nbsp;cm long and 1.5-2&nbsp;cm broad, dark purple-blue before maturity; the scale bracts are long, green or yellow, and emerge between the scales in the closed cone. The winged [[seed]]s are released when the cones disintegrate at maturity about 5–6 months after pollination.

 Korean Fir is a very popular [[ornamental plant]] in gardens in cool climates, grown for its foliage but also for the abundant cone production even on young trees only 1-2 m tall.
