Choosing a Christmas Tree

The best selling trees are Scotch pine, Douglas fir, Noble fir, Fraser fir, Virginia pine, Balsam fir and white pine.

Christmas trees take an average of 7-10 years to mature.

Some tree farms offer the consumer the chance to select his own tree while it is still growing in the tree farm.

The use of evergreen trees to celebrate the winter season occurred before the birth of Christ.

You should never burn your Christmas tree in the fireplace. it can contribute to creosote buildup.
