Whether it’s a freshly-cut Fraser Fir or a lightly-dusted, snow flocked evergreen, Pike Nurseries has the perfect Christmas tree for any family!

 

Known for providing a superior selection of quality Christmas trees, Pike Nurseries takes great pride to ensure each tree receives exceptional care to maintain its fragrance and freshness. The trees are hand-selected, cut and carried out of the forest to preserve their perfect cone shape. Once arriving at a Pike Nurseries location, each Christmas tree is carefully hand-cut and positioned in a stand filled with water to retain moisture and placed in a shaded greenhouse to shield against direct sunlight, wind and other weather elements.

With a diverse selection of evergreens, Pike Nurseries has the perfect Christmas tree to light up the holiday spirit in any home.

 

Fraser Fir Christmas Trees

Grown on a family farm in the mountains of North Carolina, the Fraser Fir Christmas trees are carefully carried – not dragged – out of the forest to preserve their fresh quality and pyramid shape. With a strong, lovely scent and deep, rich green needles that are approximately ½ inch to 1-inch long, these evergreens are a popular choice.

 

Noble Fir Christmas Trees

These evergreens are grown in the snowy mountains of Washington, where the trees are carefully carried out of the forest and placed on cold trucks before making their journey across the country. Noble Fir Christmas trees have 1-inch, bluish-green needles that lie along flat branches. Their lightly fragrant, sturdy branches can support the weight of heavier ornaments.

 

Nordmann Fir Christmas Trees

The Nordmann Fir Christmas tree has been a favorite in Europe for many years, and is the most commonly grown Christmas tree in Germany and Norway. These evergreens have symmetrically arranged strong branches with short, dark, shiny green needles that are soft and lay flat.

 

Silvertip Fir Christmas Trees

*Pike Exclusive

Grown in California in elevations of over 8,000 feet, Silvertip Fir Christmas trees are extremely rare. With a light fragrance, silver and blue tips at the end of the branches and large, wide spacing between the limbs, these evergreens display a modern, clean style.

 

Snow Flocked Christmas Trees

There’s no need to only dream of a white Christmas! True to tradition, Pike Nurseries offers quality tree-flocking service for any Christmas tree variety, providing realistic, snow-covered branches that are easy to maintain. The flocking actually insulates tree branches with flame retardant material, resulting in little to no needle-shed and no watering!

For the best quality tree at the lowest price, Pike Nurseries offers a Fresh Cut 7-foot Fraser Fir Christmas Tree for $29.99. Christmas tree stands, which start at $15, keep the trees perfectly straight and come in four different sizes, depending on the tree. Customers who purchase a tree with its stand will have the option to return them from December 26 – January 31 to receive a Pike Nurseries $10 discount off anything in the store!

For families with hectic holiday schedules, for the first time this year, Pike Nurseries offers an online Christmas shop and delivery service (within a 10-mile radius from any Pike Nurseries store location). The program is designed to make the season just a little easier by bringing everything on the Christmas list right to the doorstep! Customers can choose from an assortment of holiday essentials, including real Christmas trees, florist quality poinsettias, wreaths, garland and more. To make things even more hassle-free, Pike Nurseries garden experts will also pick up your Christmas tree after the holidays!
