Here is another I'm posting for appreciation, but would like to be corrected on the name if it's not right. I think it's Abies koreana 'Horstmann's Silberlocke', in Stanley Park across from the Rose Garden.
Are you saying that too much of the white is showing without having to work to see it? I didn't investigate that branch in the 2nd photo, but it might not be completely attached. It didn't seem silver enough for other cultivars with a name that implies white leaves. Of course, I went after the instances where the white was showing. Here is another that shows a more green appearance:
Here are a few more photos. The white appearing branch at the bottom is firmly attached. Do I understand correctly that this is just the species Abies koreana?
Yep, just normal Abies koreana. The branch bottom centre in the 1st pic is twisted (possibly broken; someone probably put a lot of weight into swinging on it) to show its lower side; if it doesn't die, it will reorient its new needles green side up from next spring.
