Virginia has a diverse climate with elevations ranging from sea level in the eastern part to several thousand feet in the mountains of the southwest Be sure and check with a local nursery or the Extension office to make sure which conifers will survive in your area.
Most firs (Abies spp.) have a hard time with Virginia summers. Fraser fir (A. fraserii) is a good example. It loves cold winters but not the hot summers. It is native to high elevations (above 3,000 feet). If planted in the western part of the state, it should have afternoon shade, plenty of mulch and access to water. White or concolor fir (A. concolor) is one that will do well in cooler parts of the state.
Of the true cedars (Cedrus spp.), only the blue atlas cedar (C. atlantica) and the deodar cedar (C. deodora) are widely grown in Virginia. Both are handsome evergreens, perfect for specimen planting where they can grow without being crowded. They will both grow in full or part sun and should be sheltered from winter winds.
