I see in your website about a Christmas tree starter package namely seedlings comprising of 4 different varieties of 25 each plus shipping. Can they be shipped within the next 4 weeks or have to wait until Spring of next year? If so how tall are the seedlings now and will they be shipped also bareroot?

All our bare root nursery stock is shipped in the spring of the year. Typically between late April and early June is the shipping timeframe. The seedlings in the starter pack are generally 6-12" above the root.

We live in east Texas. Can we successfully plant these Christmas trees without any problems? Will the trees survive in our zone? I believe we are in zone 8 or zone 9
Question by: Azalea on Oct 8, 2018, 5:47 PM
None of the trees we offer in the Christmas Tree starter pack will work in your zones unfortunately. It is too hot for your zone. Christmas tree starter pack is recommended for zones 4-5.

How many years will it take for them to be around 7-8 ft
Question by: Ken Germain on Apr 6, 2020, 10:26 AM
In general the trees will grow about a foot per year once established. I would guesstimate about 7 years out for that size tree.

Are the trees deer resistant?

Concolor Fir and Balsam Fir are not deer resistant. White Spruce and Douglas Fir are considered deer resistant. If hungry enough, deer may browse on anything young.
