Fresh Christmas Trees and Selection Tips
Fresh trees hold up best when needles are tight to the twig and the tree remains green. Douglas fir is popular for its needle retention and cost, while Scotch pine and other pines offer clusters of long needles. Spruce loses needles in warm rooms but remains valued for shape. balsam fir, concolor fir, and red cedar are also viable. Cut the butt slanting, bore a four inch hole, store in a cool moist place like an unheated basement, and water daily. Buy early to ensure freshness and involve the family in selection.
