The Noble Fir is an elegant, formal-looking tree. Its stiff branches, with the strongest needles of any Fir, are the very best for hanging heavy ornaments. The needles are a dark green color, and they turn upward to reveal regular openings between branches at different levels. Noble Fir branches are prized for making wreaths, door swags and garlands because the needles stay attached for a long time. Sometimes Noble Fir Christmas trees appear to have a hint of silver in them because of two white rows of stomata on the undersides of their needles. This purchase is a deposit.   Deliveries over 15 miles from the store may incur mileage fee.
