Our Christmas Trees

Douglas Fir Christmas Tree

We are proud to have pioneered the sheared Farm Grown Oregon Douglas Fir Christmas tree — our best selling and most popular Christmas Tree. This fragrant tree is economical and a season favorite.

The Douglas Fir Christmas tree (pseudotsuga menziesii) has been the most popular Christmas tree species since the 1920s. During the following 40 years, nearly all Christmas trees were harvested from forest lands. Since the 1950s, the transformation from growing trees in the wild to culturing them on plantations has been dramatic. Today, few trees come from forest lands. Holiday Tree Farms is a pioneer in establishing this species as the premier product of the Christmas tree industry.

Nationally, it remains one of the most popular Christmas trees species. The Douglas fir Christmas tree is shipped to the majority of the United States and is also exported to the Hawaiian Islands, Mexico, Central America, Guam and Asia.

Proper Tree Care for Your Real Christmas Tree

We’ve outlined some basic tips to ensure you get the most out of your Holiday Christmas tree.

• Start with a stable tree stand that will hold your tree without tipping and provide enough water ( 1 quart of water per inch of stem diameter ¹ ).
• Clear a space large enough to handle the diameter of your tree and stay away from heat sources.
• For trees that have been cut longer than 4 hours, make a fresh cut of about a ½” disk from the base of the trunk for water uptake.
• Secure the tree in the stand making sure it is straight and add water.
• Water temperature doesn’t matter and no additives are needed.
• The tree will require a lot of water initially, so make sure there is plenty of water for uptake.

Recycling Your Real Christmas Tree

Real trees are a renewable, recyclable resource providing benefits to the environment. The plantation-grown Holiday trees decompose in landfills and quickly replenish soil nutrients. There is also a growing trend of recycling Christmas trees where the trees are turned into mulch for gardens and other uses. Find a Christmas tree recycling center near you.
