Not much can beat the freshness of a living tree cut straight from a farm. However, cutting the tree down to size, roping it to the roof of your car and lugging it into your home can be a daunting and demanding task. Now, Yule Tree Farms, one of the nation's largest Christmas tree growers, is offering Oregon's Noble VintageŽ Live -- a beautiful container Christmas tree that can be planted permanently once the holiday season ends -- to consumers nationwide through its new Web site, www.christmastreeoregon.com.
The site offers the convenience of online shopping (trees will be shipped directly to your door) and the assurance that the trees, grown under strict supervision to the exacting standards of expert growers, will be fresh and of highest quality.
"Live Christmas trees are environmentally-friendly," says Joseph Sharp, President of Yule Tree Farms. "They are a sustainable and renewable resource that can later be added to your landscape and enjoyed for years to come."
Grown in the Mediterranean climate of Oregon's wine country using an advanced pot-in-pot technique, Oregon's Noble Vintage Live best utilizes Oregon's natural resource by conserving water. The tree is grown in a mixture of pumice and compost, along with fine and coarse bark, making it 75 percent lighter than comparable size burlap and ball trees, which allows for easy transport, set up and maintenance.
Oregon's Noble Vintage Live trees are available in a variety of species, each with a different fragrance, shape and color:
- Noble Fir
- Balsam Fir
- Serbian Spruce
- Douglas Fir
- Canaan Fir
- Colorado Spruce
- Nordmann Fir
- Engleman Spruce
