The early noble spruces that were grown commercially started life as seeds collected in these beautiful regions (google them) because they produced higher quality trees. Today, their offspring are germinated in containers and raised in nurseries for one to two years before being moved to outdoor orchards.


Justin Tan, the e-commerce and festive manager at The Green Corner, told me that the noble spruce trees they import come from Oregon. According to Oregon State University’s College of Agricultural Sciences, most Christmas tree habitats there tend to be in upland areas with well-drained, deep soils that are not sensitive to high summer temperatures.


These saplings swing around in the cool climate for eight to 10 years, reaching a height of 1.8 metres, Tan said, before embarking on their month-long transcontinental adventure across the oceans. And while they don’t get business class seats, they are transported in refrigerated containers to keep them freshhe said.


Nordmann spruceOn the other hand, they are native to the western Caucasus Mountains and the Black Sea region of northern Turkey, where they grow at altitudes ranging from 900 to 2,100 meters. They are named after Alexander von Nordmann, a Finnish zoologist.


These fir trees are considered “royalty” in the conifer world because they have the “perfect” Christmas tree look. Some trees are just lucky.


And like the royalty of the human species, Nordmanns have had their share of scandals in the form of the Great Christmas Tree Shortage of 2007. Danish growers, responsible for producing most of Europe’s Christmas trees, are said to have set prices for their coveted Nordmann spruce. , which led to many French, Germans and British not keeping calm and carrying on.
