Abies magnifica and A. grandis are two other Pacific trees we can do without. The first seems to be hardy enough but I cannot get it to make any growth. The second grows like a weed in summer but gets cut in winter, so unless age adds hardiness it wont stay with us, still our plants are several years planted here.
