Hints For Buying A Christmas Tree

Iowa State forester George Thomson lists pine Douglas fir and spruce as the main choices for Iowa homes. Pine suits 4 to 6 foot floor trees with clusters of 3 to 5 inch needles, Douglas fir is best for short, uniform table trees with 1 to 4 inch needles and good needle retention, and spruce shed needles early. Also consider cutting your own red cedar from a woodlot and placing the tree in water after cutting to improve color. Some trees may qualify for soil bank reserve planting programs in Iowa.
