Thy will look fabulous in your home decked out in tinsel, baubles and lights, and get bonus points for being living trees too. The perfect choice if you're short on space or not wanting to spend a fortune on tinsel, these trees are approximately  95-110cm tall. Their compact, bushy foliage is perfect for filing with decorations, from the flashy tiffany bauble to the handmade cotton wool snowman. To keep your tree into the new year and beyond, the best approach will be to plant it outside, where it will be happy in a spot with full sun or partial shade. Use slightly acidic soil and water in dry weather whilst your tree is establishing. Originating from the cold climate of the Caucasus, this tree is fully hardy and can grow to be a real feature, especially outdoors where it will love being wreathed in fairy lights for years to come.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003ePlease note that the sizes given are rough measurements. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScientific Name\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cem\u003eAbies nordmanniana\u003c\/em\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(von Nordmann's fir)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003eSynonyms\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e\u003cem\u003ePinus leioclada, Pinus nordmanniana, Picea nordmanniana, Abies leioclada\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstyle type=\"text\/css\"\u003e\u003c!--td {border: 1px solid #cccccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--\u003e\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cstyle type=\"text\/css\"\u003e\u003c!--td {border: 1px solid #cccccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--\u003e\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis tree has been confused with the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003ePinus\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003egenus in the past, but its current scientific name has been accepted for over a century.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Name\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003eNordmann Fir, Caucasian Fir, Christmas Tree, Christmas Fir\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003eNative to the Caucasus Mountains, including areas of Georgia, Turkey, and Russia.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstyle type=\"text\/css\"\u003e\u003c!--td {border: 1px solid #cccccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--\u003e\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cstyle type=\"text\/css\"\u003e\u003c!--td {border: 1px solid #cccccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--\u003e\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eLight\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003ePrefers full sun but can tolerate partial shade.
