Completely redesigned for 2008, our designers have made our popular Norway Spruce even more realistic! We’ve updated our True Needle ™ branches to add strength and lifelike detail, added even more True Needle ™ branches than ever before, and then carefully crafted the branch structure of the tree to provide its gorgeous silhouette.

The Norway Spruce (Picea abies) was originally introduced to America from Europe for its attractive shape as a Christmas tree. We’ve carefully mimicked the shape of a cultivated Norway Spruce to provide the quintessential Christmas tree shape while creating a gentle “in and out” branch structure which is perfect for displaying your favorite ornaments. Each of the center stems of our gorgeous True Needle ™ tips are reinforced with steel to provide excellent strength to display nearly any ornament.

Full of dense True Needle ™ foliage, our Norway Spruce reflects the vibrant color native to this popular tree species. As with all of our Vermont Signature ™ items, we offer matching wreaths and garlands with UL ® approved indoor/outdoor lights to perfectly accent your tree or home for years to come.

New for 2008, we’ve introduced our Norway Spruce with our exceptional Candlelight ™ LED lights. These innovative lights look just like regular Christmas mini lights, but are powered by LEDs instead of incandescent bulbs. Unlike the cold light emitted from traditional LEDs, our Candlelight ™ LEDs provide a warm glow reminiscent of a candle’s flame. Whether you prefer our traditional clear lights, Color+Clear ™ lights, our our new Candlelight ™ LED lights, there is no doubt that you’ve chosen an exceptional tree as the centerpiece of your Christmas celebrations!

My wife is allergic to real trees, so this Norway Spruce tree is tremendously helpful for us.

Every person who sees our Norway Spruce tree thinks that it is real.

It is the most beautiful, realistic Spruce tree I've ever seen. The tree is heavy, but it assembles easily. Overall, I am extremely pleased with the purchase process and the tree itself.

The website was easy to navigate and had great pictures, which was very important to us since we could not see it in person.

The branch kit is what convinced me to purchase the tree. It also really helped me see the differences between the trees since I could not go to a store to see them.

The Norway Spruce tree exceeded my expectations. It was simple for me to put together by myself, and I'm a very small woman. I like having the bags and boxes to store it in for next Christmas.

Having this tree makes getting ready for the holidays much easier.
