This Needlefresh Nordmann Fir (Abies Nordmanniana) is a beautiful Pot Grown Christmas Tree. A popular choice because of their superb needle-holding ability, as well as their symmetrical shape. The Nordmann Fir has glossy, rich green foliage making it a truly magical and traditional looking tree.
It can be used indoors and it looks spectacular when decorated with lights, tinsel and baubles at Christmas time. It’s also a safe tree to use around young children and pets because the needles are soft.
As this tree is planted in a pot, it can be kept indoors for decorating at Christmas and then planted outdoors in the garden to grow for years to come.
Keep your real tree outside for as long as possible as they will thrive better in the cold. Position trees well away from heat sources in the home. To replant trees outdoors after use in the home, ensure tree is watered regularly when indoors and allow it to harden off before planting. Pots may have holes in the bottom, remember to place on a dish or tray.
Originating from the Caucus Mountain range in Eastern Europe. The mountains divide Turkey and Georgia and there they grow to fully mature trees up to 12 – 15 meters high.
The seed is collected from specific areas where the trees are of particularly good form, it is then sown in specialist tree nurseries where they are germinated and grown into seedlings.
Once the seedlings are strong enough, the plants are dug up and replanted in our Christmas tree fields. Great care is taken to select only the strongest seedlings so we grow the very best Christmas trees. It takes at least 6 years before we can start harvesting the trees. A good 2-meter tree can take 8 years to be ready.
