Description

For those who cant get enough of that sweet pine-scented Christmas tree aroma, a Douglas Fir is the right tree for you. They are among the most fragrant of all Christmas trees, which has almost certainly helped Douglas Firs to become one of the top 3 most popular Christmas trees in North America. The long bluish-green foliage is quite soft and fuzzy in comparison to the rigidly sharp needles of other Christmas tree varieties, making Douglas Fir an excellent choice for homes with children of all ages. These lush and soft needles naturally grow in a very dense fashion, leaving little to no gap of visible tree trunk. This dense foliage offers noticeably more decorating space than other varieties, making Douglas Fir the perfect Christmas tree for anyone with a large ornament collection. By far the favorite variety of Christmas tree in the Western United States, Douglas Firs continue to rise in popularity year after year. Their sweet and powerful fragrance, lushly soft blue-green needles, vast decorating space, and naturally symmetric form all perfectly combine to make a Douglas Fir the perfect Christmas tree for any family.

*Please note: The smaller base of this tree may not be compatible with some of the more common Christmas tree stands meant for Christmas trees larger than 6' in height. A smaller stand may be necessary for this Christmas tree.

Frequently Asked Questions

When will it arrive?

Orders ship within one to two weeks of the day you place them, and the shipping method you choose at checkout changes only the time in transit. We can't ship to PO boxes.

What do I do when my tree arrives?

Give it a fresh cut before it goes in water. Saw about ½ inch off the bottom of the trunk, straight across, and set it in water right away, because the new cut helps the trunk take up water again. Not ready to decorate? Stand it in a bucket of water in a cool, shady spot out of the wind, like an unheated garage, where it won't freeze.

How do I keep my tree fresh?

Keep the stand full. Use a stand that holds about 1 quart of water for each inch of trunk diameter, and at least a gallon for most trees. A fresh tree drinks the most in its first week, so check the water every day and keep it above the bottom of the trunk. Plain water is all it needs.

How long will my tree last?

With water every day, most fresh-cut trees stay fresh for three to four weeks indoors, and some firs last longer. Noble, Nordmann and Fraser firs are among the longest-lasting. Grand fir is less forgiving if the stand runs dry, so refill it within about 12 hours. Keep any tree away from fireplaces, heat vents and sunny windows. A well-watered tree is hard to ignite, and a dry one is a fire risk.

What do I do when my wreath arrives?

Unpack it and hang it, or keep it somewhere cool, like an unheated garage, until you're ready. If your front door has a glass storm door that gets sun, hang the wreath somewhere else, because reflected heat can burn the greens.

How do I keep my wreath fresh, and how long will it last?

Keep it cool and out of direct sun, and mist it with water regularly. Outdoors in cool weather, a wreath should keep for three to four weeks and can last the whole season. Indoors, expect about 7 to 10 days, though fir and cedar dry out slowly and may last longer. Hang it away from heat vents and anything with a flame.

Are the holly berries safe around kids and pets?

Keep them out of reach. Holly berries are poisonous if eaten, and children are especially at risk. Eating them can cause vomiting and diarrhea, and they can make cats and dogs sick too. Hang a wreath with holly berries where small hands and curious noses can't reach it.

What if it arrived damaged?

A little branch breakage in transit is common, and we don't count it as damage. If your tree or wreath arrived damaged or looks unhealthy, send us a few photos right away, and we'll work out next steps with you.
