Arba Henry of Solanco High School presents guidance on selecting a Christmas tree, focusing on species characteristics, freshness indicators, and how to choose and maintain a tree for holiday use.
The piece discusses selecting a healthy well trimmed tree with a gentle taper and ample branches for ornaments. It notes Norway White and Blue Spruces and pines as popular, with needle length and retention details and a indoor display limit of about one to ten days.
A Lancaster Farming guide advises selecting a tree by room space to match height and display needs. Check freshness by needle grip and shake test, pick a well colored, springy, symmetrical tree, and outdoors store it in water before bringing inside. Cut the butt and water the stand, an eight foot tree may need a quart daily to stay fresh for over a week.
