Your suspicions are well-founded! Doesn't look like Abies fargesii to me.

What DOES it look like, though?

Tricky! Post some more pics when it has some cones ;-)

Also can't see if the shoots are pubescent or not, which is important for identification.

I believe this is the correct plant, Sam.

Closeup.

Yes, it's right.

Very interesting..

I am wondering if it is Abies cephalonica 'Meyer's Dwarf'. I have a plant labeled as such that looks peculiarly similar...
Thoughts?

-Sam

Any further thoughts on this plant?
I took some new pictures with my better camera, hoping to achieve a better idea of what it might be..

In my opinion, the buds and needles look far different from Will's plant.
Thanks for any help!
