Transplants

It takes 14 years for a seed in a fir cone to grow into a decent Christ­mas tree tou­ch­ing the ceiling.

Our Christ­mas trees spend their first four years in the plant nur­s­e­ry whe­re they have to show that they are able to cope with the rough cli­ma­te in the Eifel inclu­ding a cold win­ter, late frost during spring and only some rain during the summer.

In the end only half of the trees in the plant nur­s­e­ry will beco­me a Christ­mas tree. Such a natu­ral selec­tion hel­ps us to redu­ce the num­ber of los­ses in later years.

At the Tan­nen­hof appro­xi­mate­ly 400.000 Nord­mann trans­plants wait to be plan­ted by us or some other Christ­mas tree far­mers in order to beco­me a Christ­mas tree.
