NOTES

Greens, boughs and brush are synonymous terms for the purposes of this price list. Greens are cut from trees that are no longer viable as Christmas trees or are especially designated for greens. There is a variety of greens lengths harvested from a given tree. Bundles normally contain this random variety of lengths. Special orders for bundles containing only specified lengths will be priced higher accordingly.

These wholesale greens prices are for orders of one half ton or more or smaller order of greens accompanying orders of 25 trees or more. Two 25 # bundles may be substituted for one 50 # bundle at additional cost. Greens are tied into bundles with string.

By specific agreement, the buyer may pick up their order in 2 or more loads on separate days.  They will pay the balance due of the total order upon the pick up of first load.

It is highly recommended that the buyer visit the Christmas tree farm in late Summer or early Fall to view the trees from which the greens will be cut. There is such a variety of uses of boughs having different desirable characteristics that it is very useful to see exactly what the buyer needs. Greens can be used as cemetery decorations, outdoor public building decorations, garlands, swags, wreaths, kissing balls, etc. Each of these require different types, density, length, specie, etc.  Our customers report that they make the most of a supply of greens by making several different kinds of decorations.

Greens are typically cut in late October to mid-November. It is important to have multiple frosts to "set" the needles before the boughs are harvested from the tree. Some years that happens later in the season which compresses the time to complete the harvest. Balsam Fir and Fraser Fir are the most commonly purchased greens. Colorado Blue Spruce greens are typically used in professional Christmas arrangements where the blue color is very desirable. The Red, White, and Norway Spruce greens are often used in decorations where large areas are being covered and a variety of shades of green are desired for effect. White Pine is frequently used as a highlight in combination with other species. The Colorado Blue Spruce greens will be a mixture of bluish green to very blue.

How long do evergreen boughs last?

Fresh greenery will last indoors for about two weeks, and longer outdoors in cold climates. Display greenery out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources; mist with water daily to help the cuttings last.

What is an evergreen bough?

Evergreen boughs are commonly used during the Christmas season to make wreaths, swags, garlands, centerpieces, and other holiday decorations.
