Christmas Tree Types and Prices
| Virginia Pine Christmas Tree
|
Description-
Virginia pine is a medium needle pine tree with the fragrance one expects from a Christmas tree. In most trees, you can not see the trunk because of the density of the needles. All trees have been mechanically sheared to provide the shape and density desired by most of our customers. The branches of this tree can handle light to heavy weight ornaments. The Virginia Pine trees marked for sale include many over 10 feet. Price- All trees are individually priced based on overall "perfectness" with prices starting at $17.95 and the maximum being $49.95. ("Perfectness" is based on Marge's idea of what would make a beautiful tree in our house). A limited number of children trees or a "tree that only a child would appreciate" are available at $4.95 and $8.95. Most of these trees are in the two to four foot range. Mechanical tree cleaning at $2.50 and tree packaging at $2.50 are available .

| Carolina Sapphire Christmas
Tree

Description-
Carolina Sapphire is a very unique tree. The branches of this tree can handle medium and light weight decorations with no problems. This tree has a unique fragrance which is close to the rosemary herb. We did test grow this tree with planting of test seedlings in 1998 and did harvest them as Christmas trees in 2002-3. Based on this experience, we did a experimental planting of a very similar Arizona cypress.
