I ordered a 7ft Nordmann Fir from Pines & Needles last season and was pleasantly surprised by how smooth the delivery process was. The tree arrived within the scheduled time window, and the delivery team helped position it exactly where I wanted before leaving.

What stood out most was the freshness of the tree. Even after several weeks indoors, needle drop was minimal as long as I kept the stand filled with water. The tree also had a strong natural scent during the first week, which made the living room feel much more festive.

One thing I learned is that cutting a small slice off the trunk before placing it in water really helps with water absorption. I'd be interested to hear whether others noticed a difference in freshness between Nordmann Fir and Fraser Fir varieties.

Overall, the delivery experience was reliable, and the tree quality met my expectations. Has anyone else compared different tree types from Pines & Needles over multiple years? I appreciate how Crossy Road constantly keeps players alert because even a great run can end instantly if you stop paying attention to what's happening ahead.
