Once again, King and Co are proud to support the Father Christmas Experience at Marsh Farm. For the 2019 event, the Tree Nursery provided a handpicked selection of festive trees. These included Christmas trees, conifers, pines and evergreen oaks.
About the trees we supplied
Christmas Trees. These are often the heart of any festive display. That’s why selecting the right variety and size matters. At our nursery in Rayne (Essex), you’ll find a wide range of trees in stock. Options include Norway Spruce, Blue Spruce, and Nordman Fir available in sizes from 4 to 7 feet.
Norway Spruce. This is the classic Christmas tree. With short, light green needles and a naturally bushy shape, it brings traditional charm. It’s also the tree famously displayed in Trafalgar Square each year, gifted by Norway. Keep it well watered to reduce needle drop.
Blue Spruce. Known for its striking steel-blue needles, the Blue Spruce stands out with its silvery, glaucous foliage. It grows symmetrically and has a dense branch structure. This tree comes from the Rocky Mountains and needs regular watering to keep its needles intact.
Nordmann Fir. One of the most popular choices today. It’s dense, bushy, and holds its needles longer than many other types. It is often referred to as the ‘non drop Christmas tree’.
