Product Abstract
The needles of the Balsam Fir are from 3/4 to 1-1/4 inches long with two white stripes running down the underside of each needle. Also known as Blistering Pine, the oil is commonly used in air fresheners and household cleansers. Long before the advent of chewing gum, the gum was sold as a breath-freshener, and it was used medicinally on the battle field during the American Civil War.
