F.C. CHRISTMAS TREES
Our 4 Species of Trees
​
NORDMANN FIR
In the U.K. the Nordman is the tree you'll recognise as our Christmas Tree. The high grade trees we offer are, more or less, grown like Bansai. The shape can be perfection. Stunning. Less scent than the Fraser or Norway. Possibly pips the Fraser Fir in the leaf retention stakes.

​
NOBLE FIR
The Noble is known as having the best leaf retention and hardiness to drought (forgetting to water) of all the fir (non shed/low shed) trees. For the ultimate in leaf retention and hardiness, choose the Noble.

Leaf Retention: 6/5
FRASER FIR
Native to parts of Eastern Europe and Canada, the Fraser Fir is North America's Number 1 Christmas Tree. Beautiful scent, nearly as good as the Norway Spruce. The Fraser Fir has a stunning silver blue underside to its leaves. Our choice every year.

NORWAY SPRUCE
The traditional Christmas Tree and in our opinion the most beautiful, even though we always have a Fraser Fir! If you want it to look great on Christmas Day, don't put it up too early.
