best type of Xmas tree to buy

[eurodad]

@Hycomp

Frazier fir are the way to go. Almost as strong as a blue spruce for hanging heavy ornaments but the needles are not stiff and jaggy like a blue spruce. If you like a longer needle tree, douglas fir are a good choice. Scotch pine are what you’ll see a ton of sitting on tree lots (and most likely the cheapest) but don’t tend to hold the needles as well nor look nearly as nice as the other varieties mentioned.

BTW, did I mention my family owns a Christmas tree farm just outside Monongahela

beat me to it. blue spruces suck. frazier are the nicest then maybe a con-colour
