Time for a New Christmas tree?
Whether you’re looking to switch from a real Christmas tree or simply want to upgrade your old artificial one, Balsam Hill can elevate your celebrations while making set-up easier and quicker. Our latest Christmas trees use innovative technologies such as True Needle® for realism and Easy Plug® for lighting convenience. This makes your holiday preparations hassle-free without compromising on beauty and quality, while also giving you more time for things that matter the most.
How Do You Choose an Artificial Christmas Tree?
From public tree lighting ceremonies to decorating your own at home, Christmas trees play a key role in making holiday moments extra special. Follow our tips below on how to find your perfect tree.
Determine the Height
How tall your Christmas tree should be, depends on how high your ceilings are. We recommend a clearance of at least six inches between the top of your tree and the ceiling. This also accounts for tree toppers, specialty tree stands, and anything that adds height to your tree. So if you have 9-foot ceilings and a 12-inch tree topper, you’d want a 7.5-foot tree. We measure our trees from the base of the stand to the topmost tip.
Measure the Space
The shape – full, wide, or slim – is another factor to consider when deciding on a tree. Measure your available floor space and check it against the dimensions on our website. Go for a wide, full tree if you have a spacious area and a narrow or flatback one for limited spaces. We base these measurements from the widest point of the tree.
Pick a Foliage Type
Choose from trees with different levels of realism. The foliage on our Most Realistic trees are molded from real needles to capture the color, shape, and texture of their natural counterparts. Our Traditional trees, on the other hand, are made with high-quality PVC needles for fullness and affordability.
Consider Lighting Choices
From energy-saving clear or multicolor LEDs to customizable Twinkly® lights, Balsam Hill offers several lighting options to suit any theme and decorating style. Our pre-lit trees are professionally hand-strung with UL-approved lights for optimal coverage and to minimize the appearance of wires.
Explore Easy Set-up Options
Cut your decorating time in half with our Flip Trees® which you can simply flip and roll from storage to the display area quickly. We've also made lighting up your tree as simple as plugging it into a wall socket with our patented Easy Plug® Christmas tree, which has pre-made light connections within the tree trunk.
