Ella’s Advice :: Why Fraser Fir’s My Fav
Posted by Ella Maxwell on 12/01/10“Good Grief!” As much as we love Charlie Brown and his Christmas Tree, we do try and avoid that scenario as much as we can, don’t we! Fraser Firs are one of America’s favorite Christmas Trees – and mine too! And here’s a few quick reasons why:
Fraser Firs Stay Fresh
Fraser Firs hold on to their classic, dark-green needles much longer than other varieties of Christmas trees. They are very dependable and help ease that feeling of anxiety… “but what if it turns brown!”
And of course, the big benefit to these trees is their fantastic fragrance – the true scent of Christmas to welcome your family and friends into your home this season.
Easy to Decorate
Frasers have very straight trunks which make them easier to stand, even in larger sizes! Frasers also have softer needles to avoid that occasional stinging poke, stiff branches for those heavier ornaments, and an overall perfect shape for a Christmas tree – layers and layers of full branches ready for decorating. That’s why Fraser Firs are at the tip-top of my list for Christmas Trees!
Merry Christmas, Charlie Brown!
