Our wholesale Christmas tree business has grown over the years, not only
because of the quality, variety and pricing we offer our customers, but
also because of the service we provide. As always, we offer the best
quality for the price. We pay close attention to both of these factors
when choosing our product line.
Each year we personally travel to Christmas tree plantations in
Michigan, Oregon, Washington, Minnesota, Wisconsin, North Carolina and
Canada to ensure our customers receive the best quality trees and
related products at the best prices.

Canaan Fir
Canaan (pronounced “Ka-naan”, with emphasis on the
last syllable) is a relative newcomer to the Christmas tree
market. It has many similarities to both Fraser and Balsam Firs in
growth and appearance, and has led to some confusion in the
marketplace. It has a dark-green color and is very durable. |

foliage. They are native to Northern Turkey and the Republic of
Georgia and can withstand temperatures as low as 40 degrees C.
The Nordman Fir has excellent needle

Grand Fir
The Grand Fir is
one of the tallest firs, reaching heights of 300 feet. It is
easily distinguished from other Pacific Northwest firs by its
sprays of lustrous needles in two distinct rows. They are
usually horizontally spread so that both the upper and lower
sides of the branches are clearly visible. The needles are 1 to
1 1/2 inches long with glossy dark green tops and two highly
visible white lines of stomata on the undersides. |
