Christmas trees will make your celebration beautiful and cozy.

It wouldn’t be Christmas without a Christmas tree. But when the apartment is decorated, the Christmas magic emerges. To prevent the fir from spoiling, the tree should be as fresh as possible when purchased. Local markets generally sell local trees that are cut later than the fir trees sold by large distributors. The freshness can be seen in the shiny needles and lush green of the tree.

How do you choose a suitable Christmas tree?

  • Before you go looking for a Christmas tree, be sure to measure how thick the trunk can be on your home tree stand. Because you shouldn’t sharpen this. Water-conducting zones are often located directly under the crust.
  • Place the fir or spruce as far away from the heater as possible.
  • Add water every day. A tree one and a half meters tall needs about three deciliters of water every day.

For the price-conscious: Norway spruce

The most beautiful role of Norway spruce: its snowy nature. As a Christmas tree, it looks rather weak, with thin and not very dense needles. It compensates for this with a low price: from 29 francs (example: Norway fir 150-200 cm in Landi). However, it has no durability because after a week, Norway spruce begins to needle.

For aesthetics: Nordmann fir

It takes at least ten years for a Nordmann fir to reach Christmas tree size. This is reflected in the price: from 40 francs (example: nordmanntann For OBI height 120 – 150 cm) upwards. Their needles are bushy but do not sink, and they are so strong they can hold many Christmas decorations. Nordmann firsts last two to three weeks.

For the eco-friendly: Rent a Christmas tree

Cut down a tree for less than two weeks? If you don’t like that, you can rent the Christmas tree. He will be buried again after the Eid. Positive side effect: The needles of a living fir tree do not disappear. Nordmann fir trees can be rented for around 95 francs (example at Tannenbaum-mieten.ch, Red fir for rent, 130-200 cm)

For those who do not suffer: blue fir

Needles with a bluish sheen give the blue fir its name. The branches grow densely and horizontally and smell faintly of menthol, but are very bitter. Not recommended for families with young children. Blue fir is available at prices starting from 30 francs (example: True blue spruce in pot Baby Blue, 60 – 80 cm, OBI). It takes about two weeks.
