The following pics show Firs that were planted this past year. Most have experienced some winter burn on SE facing side, with A. color and A. lasiocarpa faring the worst. I planted them on the south side of mature White Pines, thinking protection from NW winds would be most critical, while still getting ample sun. I can't site them on the north side because its pasture and horses would destroy them. Should I just admit my error in siting these trees and move them to another location, or is this something they might outgrow? The first pic is A. concolor.
