Christmas Tree Noble Fir & Nordmann Fir

Growing Environment

• Indoor Placement: Choose the coolest area of your home, away from direct sunlight and not near windows that let in hot air.
• Avoid Heat Sources: Keep the tree away from air conditioners or heaters blowing directly onto it, as sudden temperature fluctuations can dry it out.

Light Requirements

• Minimal Light: Normal indoor lighting is sufficient. Avoid placing the tree where harsh sunlight streams in, as it will increase the tree’s temperature and speed up drying.

Watering

• Frequent Checks: In hot conditions, the tree may lose moisture more quickly. Check the water level in the stand once a day.
• Top-Up Regularly: Always keep the cut end of the trunk submerged in water. The warmer and drier the indoor environment, the faster the tree can dehydrate.

Humidity Needs

• Maintain Moisture: Higher humidity levels help keep the needles fresh. If the room is very dry, consider using a humidifier nearby (but not blowing directly on the tree).
• Tip: Avoid positioning the tree in areas with strong airflow, like under a ceiling fan on high speed, as this can dry out the needles faster.

Fertilizing

• Not Needed: A cut Christmas tree does not need fertilizer. Just keep it well-watered.

Air Circulation

• Balanced Ventilation: Good air circulation prevents mold, but too much dry air can shorten the tree’s lifespan. Aim for gentle airflow rather than strong blasts of air.
• Tip: Position the tree in a spot with stable, moderate airflow, not directly in line with fans or vents.
