FRESH CUT TREES - DOUGLAS
FIR
Still a very popular Christmas
tree in southern California, the Douglas Fir are a relatively full
tree with dark or blue green needles, 1 to 1 ½ inches long, soft to
the touch and radiate out in all directions from the branch. They
have a sweet fragrance when crushed.
The Douglas Fir is light in weight compared to
the Noble Fir, yet can support ornaments on the inner part of the
branches. This tree has excellent needle retention.
Douglas Firs are native to central California,
western Oregon and Washington, parts of the Rockies and extends
north to Alaska.
