FRASER FIR:

The Fraser Fir is one of the most popular types of Christmas Tree for good reason! The trees naturally grow in a lovely pyramid shape so don’t require much pruning, & their dense branches full of soft dark blue-green needles with silvery undersides are very attractive. Importantly, they are able to retain their needles for a long time (typically 6 weeks or so) after being cut. Their slim form makes them a good fit for smaller spaces. They feature strong limbs with an upward curvature that hold ornaments well & won’t sag under the weight of allll those ornaments you can’t wait to lovingly smother it with. A close relative of the Balsam Fir, the Fraser Fir is quite fragrant, & its scent really is best described as “Christmas” – like Balsam - a bit like pine with woody, earthy tones, & a hint of citrus.

Fraser Firs have been used as the White House Christmas tree more than any other species, & is the tree chosen for the banquet hall at Biltmore. I myself cannot hear ‘Fraser Fir’ without thinking of Harold & Kumar :)
