A. concolor tops off at about 50', but I don't know about 'Candicans'.
Biggest I've seen is about 30'.

Yup, they're kind of an olive green with a purplish bloom (not the
floral type) that darkens as the season progresses. Fir cones are
interesting because they point straight up instead of hanging down,
but they're usually borne pretty high up near the crown.
