Do you have your favorite type of tree to use for a Christmas tree or do you just buy the first tree you see on the lot? Most people ponder over this important decision, looking for the perfectly shaped, fullest, most beautiful tree they can find. Read here to find the perfect type of tree for your ultimate holiday decoration and to find out about the many options available.
The Fraser Fir may be the perfect holiday tree. Its attractive 1" needles are silvery-green and soft to the touch. Because there is space between the branches, the Fraser is easier to decorate than some trees. The firm branches hold heavier ornaments. The trees grow to almost perfect shapes, and as long as the cut tree is kept properly watered, the Frasier Fir has excellent needle retention.
A Colorado Blue Spruce has a nice pyramidal shape with strong limbs that can hold heavy ornaments. The Blue Spruce is known for its lovely blue foliage which can also appear silvery. If your decorating scheme does not include this bluish tint, this tree may not be right for your home.
These floral innovations are revolutionizing the concept and style of Holiday lighting. A variety of unique designs transform the ordinary silk flower and cast an enchanting, ambient glow on any setting. This collection offers something special for this Holiday.

Canna lilies – These highly attractive plants are fantastic for bringing a touch of the tropic to the garden. Exotic flowers are borne from July and can last up until November or at least until the first frosts arrive. Popular cultivars include the impressive ‘Lucifer and Tropicanna’.
Commonly known as the Autumn Crocus or Naked Ladies – because they come into flower without leaves – colchicums can give a fantastic display from September to October. Although colchicums look like crocuses, they are actually members of the lily family. The most popular is C. 'Waterlily', and is perhaps the most common of all colchicums whose double pink blooms wouldn't look out of place floating on a pond.
Even though Eucomis species are a relative newcomer to the English garden, their tropical looks and excellent winter hardiness have already made them a sure-fire hit.

Decorating your tree with apples is a very old-fashioned way of decorating a tree. You can use real apples, but they will tend to go bad after a few days. Instead, get big, shiny, red apples from craft stores and hang them all over your tree. You can paint some with glitter or tie ribbons on them to make them stand out more. The beautiful red colour of the apples stands out wonderfully against the dark green of the tree.
Decorating your Christmas tree with bears, lots of lots of teddy bears. Get big and small ones, dress them in holiday outfits and gently tie them to your tree. You can usually find lots of inexpensive teddy bears at dollar stores or second-hand stores. Don't forget a very special bear for the top of the tree.
