Caring for your wreath

November 30, 2007

Did you know: Holiday evergreens are said to symbolize our everlasting circle of life?!?!

 You can spray your greens with garden-type anti-desiccants to reduce moisture loss and increase life!

Keep your greens away from any heat sources – they do better in cold weather.

Caring for your Christmas tree

November 28, 2007

Here’s what we suggest to help keep your tree healthy through the New Year:

Before you put your tree in its stand cut off at least 1/4″ to remove any sap build-up 

Use a tree stand that holds at least a gallon of water – refill it daily – don’t allow the water to drop below the bottom of the trunk (otherwise a sap plug will form and the tree won’t be able to drink any more water.

Keep your tree away from heat sources

Different ‘Species’ of Trees

November 26, 2007

We have Fraser Firs. They have short, dark-green needles which are silver-ish on the bottom side.

 

Canaan Firs have slightly longer and softer needles 

Balsam Firs are considered to be the most fragrant tree.

We also have trees with long needles, the White Pine and the Scotch Pine
