The best artificial Christmas tree is one that fits your home and makes you excited to decorate. Maybe you love a full green tree covered in family ornaments, snowy branches with soft metallic accents, or a shorter tree that brings holiday cheer to a favorite room.
To help you find your match, here are five standout options at Hicks Nurseries, each offering something different in size, style and sparkle. All five come prelit, so you can spend more time decorating and less time stringing lights.
What to Consider Before Choosing
Start by measuring your ceiling height and available floor space, allowing room for your tree topper. A shorter tree isn’t always narrower, so check its diameter, too.
Next, consider your decorating style. Do you prefer traditional green foliage or a snow-dusted finish? Warm white lights or multi-function lighting? Branch tips help give a tree its fullness, but needle style and branch arrangement also influence its overall appearance. Seeing trees in person can help you compare these details.
1. Best for Lower Ceilings: 6.5-Foot Balsam Fir
Looking for a traditional Christmas tree without the extra height? The 6.5-foot Balsam Fir offers lifelike greenery and a classic shape, with 800 lights and 2,340 branch tips. Its 35-inch diameter also makes it worth considering when floor space is limited.
Style it with red ribbon, treasured ornaments and your favorite topper for a familiar Christmas look. This is our pick for anyone who wants a main tree that feels festive without overwhelming the room.
2. Best for a Bright Holiday Display: 7.5-Foot Eagle Point Grand Green
If the glow of Christmas lights is your favorite part of the season, put the Eagle Point Grand Green on your list. This 7.5-foot tree features 2,000 super bright multi-function lights.
Its deep green foliage, 3,111 tips and full, 56-inch-wide shape make it a strong choice for a living room with space for a generous tree. Add ribbon and an assortment of ornaments, or let the lights take the lead with simpler decorations.
3. Best for a Snowy Look: 7.5-Foot Nordic Flocked Fir
Dreaming of a white Christmas? The Nordic Flocked Fir brings that winter feeling indoors with snow-dusted branches and 950 multi-function lights. At 7.5 feet tall, its narrow profile offers a different silhouette from a broad, full tree.
Pair its flocked foliage with silver, champagne and soft white decorations for an elegant look, or choose red ornaments for cheerful contrast. With 2,937 tips, it provides plenty of texture before the first ornament goes on.
4. Best for a Shorter Tree: 4.5-Foot Montauk Fir
The 4.5-foot Montauk Fir is our choice for adding Christmas charm to a bedroom, sitting room or another spot where a taller tree would feel out of place.
Warm green needles and 300 warm white LED lights create an inviting look. Its full shape measures 40 inches across, so choose a sturdy tabletop with enough room for its width. Try a coordinated ornament collection or make it a second tree dedicated to family keepsakes.
5. Best for High Ceilings: 9-Foot Rocky Mountain Fir
For a room with height to spare, the 9-foot Rocky Mountain Fir makes a memorable impression. Its full silhouette, realistic foliage, 4,279 tips and 2,500 multi-function lights give you a substantial foundation for holiday decorating.
Style it with woodland accents and natural textures, or oversized ornaments and flowing ribbon. Leave room above the tree for your topper.
