Fraser Fir Christmas Tree Care Instructions
-
Water Regularly
Keep the tree stand filled with water at all times. A fresh tree can absorb up to a gallon of water in the first 24 hours, so check the water level daily to ensure it doesn’t dry out.
-
Position Wisely
Place your tree away from heat sources such as radiators, fireplaces, and direct sunlight. Excessive heat can dry out the tree, causing it to lose needles more quickly and become a fire hazard.
-
Trim the Trunk:
Before placing your tree in the stand, trim about half an inch off the base of the trunk. This fresh cut allows the tree to absorb water more effectively, helping it stay fresh and vibrant throughout the holiday season.
Characteristics of a Fraser Fir
- Short Needles: Stiff, dark green needles with a more silvery tint on the underside, giving the tree a frosted look.
- Shape: a narrower, conical shape with evenly spaced branches, perfect for smaller spaces or rooms with limited floor space.
- Needle Retention: Fraser Firs have excellent needle retention, making them a long-lasting choice throughout the season.
- Fragrance: Fraser Firs have a pleasant fresh pine scent.
