How to choose the right height Christmas tree
Aim to have 12 inches between the top of your tree and the ceiling to accommodate an eye-catching Christmas tree topper. We measure our trees from the base of the stand to the topmost tip of the tree.
Our Christmas trees range in height from 1.5ft to a lofty 8ft, so choose the spot in your home you wish to place it in to determine which size you need. We recommend:
3ft and under – Miniature trees for tabletops, bedrooms and smaller spaces.
5 or 6ft – Perfect for smaller homes or those with low ceilings.
7ft – The best size for standard-height (8-9ft) ceilings.
8ft – Great for larger homes with high ceilings, or rooms where a statement tree is required.
Meet our pre-lit spruce Christmas trees
Our Christmas trees come in many different shapes, including the spruce, the fir and the pine. The spruce has a classic silhouette at a great price, and is available in five varieties, from a slim spruce to a tabletop tree.
These trees come pre-lit with white bulbs for a soft, ambient glow. Narrow versions are ideal for small rooms, offices and apartments, while larger trees make a stunning focal point in large hallways or living rooms.
Learn more about our popular pine trees
A bestselling shape featuring the classic profile of its natural counterpart, our life-like pine Christmas trees have more branches than the spruce, as well as bristle tips that imitate those on a real pine tree.
This shape is perfect for showcasing decorative ornaments and baubles thanks to the dense array of branches. It's available in four sizes, including an 8ft version – ideal for making a stunning display if you have a lot of space to fill.
Take a look at our fir Christmas trees
Our life-like noble fir Christmas trees mimic the shade of natural evergreens with plump, deep-green needles set onto slender stems. These trees have over 800 tips and alternating layers, imitating the profile of a natural tree.
With their lush, full silhouette and highly realistic appearance, our grand firs are the ultimate centerpiece for your Christmas celebrations. They're adorned with 2,000 professionally strung warm white lights, which can be set to static or twinkling modes for a magical effect. Available in 7ft or 8ft heights, these fir trees are ideal for larger spaces, and provide ample room for baubles and decorations to showcase your decorating theme.
