Netted Nordman Fir Christmas Trees being packed and stacked ready for loading in Lancashire
The Nordman Fir, which was first introduced into Britain in the mid 19th century, is a native of north east Turkey and Georgia, and is the No1 Christmas Tree in Europe. This tree is named after a Finnish zoologist Alexander von Nordmann, a Professor of Botany at Odessa. He also has a butterfly named after him – Parnassius nordmanni. The reason that the Nordman Fir is so popular is because of its beautiful symmetrical shape with strong, layered well spaced out branches that allow you to display Christmas decorations at their best. The attractive shiny dark green needles make it an ideal tree for all members of the family to decorate at Christmas time. The Nordman Fir has also got very good needle retention.
