"Douglas Fir flourishes if every few years a good, cleansing fire comes along and clears away the deadwood and low brush at its base so that its seedlings can prosper."
~ David Suzuki and Wayne Grady, Tree: A Life Story

"This vigorous fir is ever beautiful, welcoming the mountain winds and the snow as well as the mellow summer light, and maintaining its youthful freshness undiminished from century to century through a thousand storms."
~ John Muir

"Three hundred million years ago, essential oils as we know them today were the ubiquitous secondary substances in the coniferous needle trees. At this stage of development, it proved successful for these plants to produce essential oils made predominantly of monoterpenes. Because of needle trees, we know that limonene, pinene, borneol, carvacrol, and thymol, among others, have figured prominently in the chemistry of life on this planet."
~ Kurt Schnaubelt, Advanced Aromatherapy
