Christmas Tree Ideas: Choose the Right One

Before jumping into decorating ideas, let’s look at the different Christmas tree types. Choosing the kind of Christmas tree you’ll be adorning is essential. With real and artificial options, here are the ones you can pick from.

Fir Christmas Trees

Fir trees are Evergreen trees that are popularly used for Christmas. There are numerous varieties of Fir trees with a lot of common characteristics. But they can be distinguished based on color,shape, and aroma. 

• Noble Fir: Has a dark green color, intense fragrance, and sturdy branches. 
• Douglas Fir: Fully bodied with a pyramid shape, dark green color, and a seasonal aroma.
• Balsam Fir: With a conical shape, it is exceptionally aromatic.
• Fraser Fir: Except for lighter-toned needles, the shape and aroma resemble Balsam Fir. 
• Grand Fir: Has a sturdy body with an intense fragrance and subtle yellow-green needles.
• Canaan Fir: A hybrid of Balsam and Fraser, it has robust branches, a moderate aroma, and a lush green hue.
• Concolor Fir: Has a big, rounded structure with blueish-green colored needles.

Pine Christmas Trees

This type of Evergreen tree is the most ideal for Christmas. They have distinct and iconic shapes and colors that a perfect Christmas tree should have.

• White Pine: Although it is tall, it’s not strong. Yet, it’s ideal for light decor and has a mellow aroma with pale, blueish-green needles.
• Scotch Pine: Has sturdy branches, a deep green color, and a moderate aroma.
• Virginia Pine: Short and stout with a moderate scent and twisted needles.

Spruce Christmas Trees

These are cone-shaped Evergreen trees. There are almost 35 varieties of Spruce trees, but only three can be used for Christmas.

• Blue Spruce: The grayish-blue needles give a natural snowy touch to this tree. It has a rich aroma and thick foliage cover that is ideal for decoration.
• Norway Spruce: Has a lean body, rich green needles, and a moderate aroma. However, it has low water absorption with dense foliage, droopy lower branches, and sharp needles, making it difficult to water. Hence, it might dry quickly.
• White Spruce: Has sturdy branches with a lighter shade than the Blue Spruce, which gives it a natural snow-dusted look.

Cypress Christmas Trees

Cypress trees aren’t as popular as other trees used for Christmas. But two of its varieties are worth checking out.

• Arizona Cypress: Has a tall, conical body with a blueish-green color and a moderate scent.
• Leyland Cypress: Has the perfect Christmas tree shape with feathery foliage. Its lack of fragrance is very helpful for people struggling with allergies.

Cedar Christmas Trees

These are pretty different than the other trees used for Christmas. Try to understand their appearance differences so that it’s easier when you go Christmas tree hunting.

• Red Cedar: Has an intense aroma with a pyramid or pencil shape.
• Deodar Cedar: This tree has the most extraordinary shape of them all. Although it has a big pyramid stature, its branches fall elegantly without a distinct structure. 

Artificial Christmas Trees

If you don’t want the trouble that comes with a real Christmas tree, you can always take a shortcut and go with an artificial one. Artificial trees are an eco-friendly option as they are reusable for a few years and don’t need to be watered. Plus, they also look (and even smell) exactly like the actual trees. No one will be able to tell the difference!

Here are a few things you should consider when choosing an artificial Christmas tree:

• Height & Width: Artificial trees come in various sizes. Measure the space where you want to place the tree before choosing the size. Don’t forget to account for the space needed for decorations or the height of the tree topper. You can choose a full, slim, or pencil tree, depending on where you want to place it. For a limited space, consider a flat-back tree.

• Lighted or Unlighted: An unlighted tree is the cheaper option. But if you don’t want the mess of string lights, you can opt for a lighted tree. It is available in LED (less heat, less electricity) or incandescent (less cost) lights for you to choose from.

• Branch Type: The branches are either hook-in or hinged. The hinged ones are easier to set up than the hook-in ones. However, they are also costlier. So, one saves time, and the other saves budget. You can pick the one you are comfortable with.

• Material Type: The material used is either PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) or PE (Polyethylene). While PVC is durable and affordable, PE is more realistic and expensive. Choose the one that is best suited for you.

• Color: There are other options if you don’t want to go along with the classic green color. White, pink, black, blue, orange, or red; you can pick any color that you want.

Once you choose the tree that best suits your needs, it is time to look at the decoration ideas you can try and enjoy with your family. Let’s jump into it!
