Hello everyone, I request help in identifying what was purchased as Abies Veitchii in an online nursery. After unpacking I was immediately struck by the glacuous tint, surely not something to be expected. While there are not many species that have stomata on the upper surface of leaves, it doesn't seem to me like the plant precisely matches characteristics of any of them. I am no fir specialist however. The nursery wasn't able to provide any information about the seed origin. I'm in northern Europe, but obviously the origin can be anywhere.

Differences with Veitchii that I'm already growing, besides leaf color: the bark is light brown rather than grey; the foliage is less dense; the leaves are more perpendicular to twigs instead of somewhat turned towards the ends of them; the branchlets don't seem to be as hairy as Veitchii's (although there is some non-uniform hairiness).

Other remarks: resin canals marginally placed; distinct notch on the ends of the leaves.
