Christmas is a magical time of year at the nursery. Beginning in early November, we convert our glass greenhouse–typically one large open space–into two smaller rooms. In one, we create a beautiful display of colorful poinsettias, cheery cyclamen and other indoor plants. In the other larger room we set up our display of fresh-cut Christmas trees and install our seasonal Christmas train among a display of winter-blooming hellebores, miniature evergreens, and other colorful outdoor plants for winter containers.

At Vander Giessen’s, we carry both living and locally-grown cut trees. Our Christmas tree selection for 2024 includes the following varieties:

Cut Trees

• Douglas Fir
• Fraser Fir
  
• Noble Fir
  
• Nordmann Fir
  

Living Trees

• Norway Spruce
• Serbian Spruce

Some of the other Christmas items we carry include:

We’re also proud to carry two other must-have accessories for your Christmas tree: Cinco stands and Miracle-Gro for Christmas Trees. If you’re sick of fighting to get your tree in its stand, look no further than the easy setup of a Cinco stand. With ratcheting bolts, you can lock your tree into place in seconds. And for keeping your tree vibrant and fresh all season long, Miracle-Gro for Christmas Trees will ensure that your tree continues to take up water, keeping its needles greener and fresher throughout the season.
