What makes this tree special.

The Fraser Fir is one of the most popular Christmas trees thanks to its exceptional needle retention, strong branch structure, and pleasant, citrus-like fragrance. Its needles are soft to the touch and have a deep green upper surface with silver undersides that shimmer beautifully under lights. Fraser Firs stay fresh for weeks with proper care and are ideal for hanging heavier ornaments due to their sturdy, upward-angled branches.

The story behind the species.

Eastern White Pine has deep historical roots in America. It was highly valued by early colonists and even designated as the “King’s Tree” by the British for use as ship masts due to its impressive height. It’s native to the eastern U.S. and was one of the earliest species sold commercially as Christmas trees.

Tips for keeping your tree fresh all season.

Keep your Eastern White Pine well hydrated and avoid placing heavy ornaments on its softer branches. Because it has a mild scent, it’s a great choice for those sensitive to fragrance. Regular watering ensures the long needles stay soft and intact. Cleanup is easy thanks to its strong needle retention.
