What kind of trees do you have?

The majority of our trees are Virginia pines.  These are a long-needle evergreen, with long springy branches, open enough for room to hang your favorite ornaments, but full enough to keep a pleasing shape.  Our trees are shaped by hand during the year.  We have both short-wide and tall-narrow type trees.  (You'll find that some farms tend to cut all of their trees in identical shapes.  We like to shape each tree to set off it's natural growth.  A few of our native "red cedar" (actually a type of juniper) trees have also been shaped and made ready to be Christmas Trees (or Yule Logs, or Kwanza bushes or -whatever you'd like to call them! ) We grow a few experimental trees such as a Silvertip, and also Afghan pines. Some people come wanting to find Spruce, Fir, or Norfolk pine.  We cannot grow these trees in our area.  The soil conditions, and more importantly, the temperatures, are not right in this region of Texas to grow these trees.  They require certain numbers of days of very cold temperatures to grow properly, and Texas doesn't get enough of those days reliably.  Virginia pines grow nicely, at an average of about one foot of growth per year. Our trees grow in the field until you cut them down to take them home.  They will always be fresh since they are truly live, fresh-cut trees.  Don't worry, we plant more!  Please see the page I was Grown to Be a Christmas Tree.
