Abies pinsapo
''Abies pinsapo'' (Spanish fir) is a species of fir native to southern Spain and northern Morocco. Related to other species of Mediterranean firs, it is considered the ''Andalusian National Tree'', and is native to the Andalusian mountains. In Spain, it appears at altitudes of in the Sierra de Grazalema in the province of Cádiz and the Sierra de las Nieves and Sierra Bermeja, both near Ronda in the province of Málaga.

==Description==
''Abies pinsapo'' is an evergreen tree growing to 20–30 m tall, with a conic crown, sometimes becoming irregular with age. The leaves are 1.5–2 cm long, arranged radially all round the shoots, and are strongly glaucous pale blue-green, with broad bands of whitish wax on both sides. The cones are cylindrical, 9–18 cm long, greenish-pink to purple before maturity, and smooth with the bract scales short and not exserted. When mature, they disintegrate to release the winged seeds.
The Moroccan variety, ''Abies pinsapo'' var. ''marocana'' or the Moroccan fir, differs in the leaves being less strongly glaucous and the cones slightly longer, 11–20 cm long.
The cultivar ''A. pinsapo'' 'Glauca' has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.〔(RHS Plant Selector Abies pinsapo 'Glauca' AGM / RHS Gardening )〕
