The holiday season is here and we love it for so many reasons, but as a garden center, our favorite part is when the Christmas Trees arrive and we get to help everyone who visits Glover Nursery find the right tree for their home. Here at Glover Nursery we love gardening and that extends to taking care of your live Christmas tree with these tips too! 

We’ve talked about the environmental benefits of choosing a “real” Christmas tree as opposed to a manufactured one, but when it comes to real trees, there are more choices to be made.

We provide both Fresh Cut and Live Christmas Trees. Wait, you didn’t know you could buy a live Christmas tree? Well, you can! 

What Is a Live Christmas Tree? Live Christmas Tree vs Fresh Cut Christmas Tree

A Live Christmas Tree is one that you purchase with the root ball intact. Families who choose a live Christmas tree are often purchasing one because they intend to plant it in their yard after the holiday is over. We think this is a wonderful way to make a lasting memory while adding sentimental value and curb appeal to your landscape. 

Live Christmas Tree vs Fresh Cut Christmas Tree

Both of these real Christmas Tree options will make for beautiful holiday decor and provide that fresh evergreen aroma that we love to enjoy throughout the holidays. They each need different types of care and preparation. To help you choose if a Live Christmas tree is right for you this holiday season let’s first define the difference between a Fresh Cut and Live Christmas tree.

Live Christmas Tree Lots in Utah

When shopping for a live Christmas tree you want to actually search for a nursery in your area, not just a tree lot. Tree lots will have an excellent selection of fresh cut Christmas trees but they don’t carry trees with the root ball attached.  This is where we come in - one of the top plant nurseries in Utah who have also been providing excellent, real, fresh-cut  Christmas Trees for over 5 decades! The best of both worlds.

Here at Glover Nursery you can rest assured that any evergreen tree you decide on is one that is suited to grow in the Salt Lake Valley. We only keep trees, plants and shrubs in stock that are a fit for our unique climate. Though, we always recommend checking the variety will match your growing area - soil type and water type do make a difference.

As Ryan Glover says, you don’t have to worry about whether it's going to grow in Utah or not because everything we sell will grow here.

 

If you don’t live near Glover Nursery in West Jordan, here are a few questions to ask your local nursery before purchasing a live Christmas tree.

  1. What is your current evergreen selection?
  2. Are these trees intended for our USDA hardiness zone?
  3. What type of soil will this tree need? 
  4. Can this tree handle secondary water (if applicable)?

It’s best to steer clear of those big box stores for this type of purchase. They might have evergreens available but most larger retail stores may not carry location specific plants so you may end up purchasing a live Christmas tree that won’t do well  in your yard.

What to Look for in a Live Christmas Tree

Live Christmas Tree CostLive Christmas Tree Cost

When buying a Christmas tree whether fresh cut or fake you’re going to be making an investment. That’s one reason that live Christmas trees are so great! 

Here at Glover Nursery our fresh cut trees range from $59 - $299 depending on the tree's height and variety. When purchasing a fresh cut tree you’re basically looking at a similar range but most live Christmas trees will be in the $100 - $300 range, though they will be smaller in size and cannot be in the home for more than 5 days. 

When to Buy a Live Christmas Tree

A live Christmas tree is a living thing, it’s easy to forget that since we’re so used to having fresh cut trees or even the dreaded fake Christmas tree. But when you choose a live Christmas tree you need to be aware of your timing. A live Christmas tree can only be in your house for a short period of time. At Glover Nursery we recommend keeping it indoors for a maximum of 5 days.  This is because the tree will start to break dormancy if it is in a warm environment for too long, and it will not have an easy time going back into dormancy when it is moved back outside.  However, you can keep the living trees outside as long as you wish, as long as they have access to water through the winter. 

7 Live Christmas Tree Care Tips

Now that you’ve purchased your tree it’s time to bring it home and enjoy it! 

1. Dig the Hole Early7 Live Christmas Tree Care Tips

Here in the Salt Lake Valley our average first frost date falls in early November, though that doesn't mean the ground will be frozen. Still, if you want to bring a live Christmas tree home you should plan on digging a hole for it sooner than later.  While you can dig frozen ground it is much more challenging. 

How do you know if your ground is frozen? You’ll be able to tell if your ground is frozen by trying to insert a shovel.  If you are able to insert the shovel,  you can still dig and therefore, you will be able to plant your tree.

A tree planting rule of thumb is to dig a hole the same depth of the root ball and two times the diameter. If you don’t already know the size of your tree’s root ball, a safe place to start is about 2 feet wide and 1 foot deep, a few extra shovel fulls may need to be removed, but at least the majority of the work will be done. 

Another good idea is to measure the container size of the tree and use that as an easy guide for digging. Store the dug-up dirt in a bucket or wheelbarrow for easy storage until the time for planting arrives.  

Pro Tip: Contact your local utility company before digging to make sure you won’t hit any lines. For residents in Salt Lake, that would be Blue Stakes https://www.bluestakes.org/ 

2. Lighting Your Live Christmas Tree

Remember that your live Christmas tree will only last 5 days indoors but that doesn’t mean that you can’t enjoy it for more than that! We recommend purchasing your tree and lighting it with indoor/outdoor lighting so that you can enjoy viewing it in your front or back yard before bringing it into the house for the main event.  

It is best to use LED lights so they do not add unnecessary heat to the dormant tree.

3. Get the Tree Acclimated

Bringing a live tree indoors from the cold and then back outside again in a few days’ time can send it into shock. Before bringing the tree inside (and then again when you take it back outside) store it in a garage, shed, or sheltered area for a couple of days to allow the tree to get acclimated. When you are displaying the tree in your home, make sure to keep it away from heat sources such as fireplaces, kitchens and heating vents. 

4. Keep the Rootball Moist

In order to keep your Live Christmas Tree alive while it is indoors, the root ball must always be kept moist. A tip to keep the root ball moist but not overwatered is to display it in a watertight container and water it when the soil feels dry. 

5. Using a Live Christmas Tree Indoors

One of the best parts of a live Christmas tree is that you don’t need a special stand for it! If you’ve ever purchased a plant or tree before from a nursery you’ll know that it comes in a container. These containers are normally pretty utilitarian looking so we recommend decorating them by wrapping it in fabric or even Christmas wrapping paper. Or, you can even use a Christmas Tree Skirt and let it drape over the pot.  We’ve even seen people use old Christmas tablecloths to wrap around the container.

Another plus for the containerized trees, there will be LOTS of room for gifts under the tree!

Make sure you place a drip pan under the container when you bring it indoors before decorating it so if there is any excess water, it won’t damage your floor.

6. Watering a Live Christmas Tree

With all the hustle and bustle of the holidays it’s very important do not forget to water your live Christmas tree. The best method for indoor watering is to check the soil, and if it feels dry, water it as you would a houseplant.  When it is moved outdoors and planted, follow our recommended winter watering protocols for newly planted trees. 

7. How to Prune a Live Christmas Tree

Generally your live Christmas tree should not be pruned.  If you want to shape it a tiny bit, you can trim some edge, but no heavy pruning should be done on the tree until the end of February or early March. We recommend using sharp cutting shears and disinfecting your tools before doing any cutting. Regular rubbing alcohol works great to disinfect. Simply wet a clean rag or paper towel with rubbing alcohol and then rub along your blades. 

Live Christmas Tree Planting TipsLive Christmas Tree Planting Tips

Planting a Live Christmas Tree Outside in Utah

Since you’ve pre-dug your hole for your live Christmas tree you’ll be set even if we end up with a white Christmas here in Utah. Yes, you can still plant your live Christmas tree even if there is snow on the ground. 

Make sure that you take the extra few days to acclimate your tree to being outside again by transitioning it from your house to an outdoor shelter like your garage, a tool shed or even a covered porch. This will prevent your tree from going into shock when it leaves your cozy home and enters your yard. 

Remove the tree from the container and gently set the tree in your hole, then backfill the area around the roots with the pre-dug dirt you saved. Here in the Sale Lake Valley our customers have a wide variety of soil types - sandy, rocky, clay soil or a mixture of all three! Depending on what type of soil you have we recommend different amendments to add when planting your tree. View our planting instructions online to find the perfect amendments to add. You can also add some fertilizer to the soil to help your tree get off to a good start once spring arrives.

Live Christmas Tree Maintenance Outdoors

Once your tree is planted you’ll want to make sure it gets enough water through the winter.  If we have significant snowfall as we did in 2022/2023 winter season, this shouldn’t be a problem. However, if we have a dry winter, as is more common, be sure to follow our  winter watering guide.

Common Live Christmas Tree FAQs

Can you use a live Christmas tree year after year? 

We don’t recommend using the same tree year after year - unless you plan on decorating your tree when it is outside. Once you plant your live Christmas tree in your yard it will start establishing itself and the root system cannot be dug up again without causing significant harm, more likely death, to the tree.

Are live Christmas trees worth it?

A live Christmas tree is an investment in both time and money but the impact it will have on your landscape and in your memory is priceless. Investing in a live Christmas tree for special occasions is worth it. Some memory making times could be…

How long can live Christmas trees stay indoors?

You can only have a live Christmas tree in the house for a short period of time. Here at Glover Nursery we recommend no more than five days.

Will my live Christmas tree survive if it’s planted in winter?

At Glover Nursery we have a saying, if you can dig, you can plant. Since you’ll have already dug a hole for your live Christmas tree you will be all set to plant it in the ground after Christmas. As long as you acclimate your tree to outside again there is no condition that will prevent it from surviving through the winter… if you make sure and water it. 

Watering your newly planted tree frequently throughout the winter is very important because it won’t have the root growth yet to seek out water on its own. You can check out our guide to winter watering here to see a couple of expert garden tips to help your tree thrive this winter. 

Enjoy your live Christmas tree for many years to come!

I absolutely love Glover Nursery. You will not find another nursery with such an incredible and... diverse stock of trees, shrubs, perennials, and everything you could possibly want for your garden. This place is huge and they have absolutely everything, including many varieties you won't find anywhere else. And if for some reason they don't have a specific item you are looking for, they will work with you to find it.Previously to finding this nursery, I was ordering my trees and plants from specialized nurseries all over the country, by mail, because I was looking for some very specific conifers. That is not ideal, so I was overjoyed to find that Glover carries the same items (including conifers from Iseli nursery in Oregon), and I can go check them out in person and pick out exactly which specimen I want. And you certainly can't beat the five year warranty on trees with a Myke purchase.The staff at Glover are terrific...helpful, knowledgeable, and they actually seem like they like working there. If you contact them with questions by phone or email, you will get an actual human who responds with consideration and full knowledge and recommendations...you don't get run through AI responses or transferred to some call center worker, you will get a timely and friendly response from a real local person who wants you to be satisfied.I love Glover Nursery so much that my husband jokes I have a Glover addiction, and he's not wrong. But my garden is blooming and gorgeous because of them, and the best part is they are a local, family owned business. I would give ten stars if I could.read more

I came by today to check out the sale. I almost turned around because the construction made it such... a pain to get there. The workers weren't very helpful, hence the low rating. I was right next to a lady who asked about the sales and one of the workers just told her to walk around. I bought a raspberry bush and they didn't give me the 30% off discount, but I had already left and didn't want to go back. Meh.read more

I only gave one star because you have to give at least one. If you are a contractor do not send... your customers here to find what they want. Their process of getting contractor pricing is a joke and they treat you like they don’t want your business. Plus they basically have armed guards protecting every exit that treat you like you are a thief. So if you are a contractor trying to make a living then I suggest sending them somewhere else. When I complained to them about the situation, they said that their sales are just fine without contractors. So I personally will never send another customer there. I hope other contractors will choose to do the same.read more

First of all, Glover nursery is great, they have vast array of trees, shrubs, plants,... "accessories", really just about ANYTHING you could want. There are an ample number of employees, who are knowledgeable, helpful and kind. However I'd like to single out one employee in particular, Kylie. I was looking for something related to gardening, but still a bit out of the "norm" for items that typically would be stocked at a nursery. Even though it was something they didn't sell (or make money on), Kylie took the time, made calls to help me find EXACTLY what I had been searching for, and then followed up promptly with me to give me the "source" who could provide it. To me, she absolutely went "above and beyond'! In the future I will definitely be going back to Glover!!!read more

Let me first say that I really liked your sales rep (Amber) outside of that, what an atrocious... experience! I fell in love with the scent of your climbing rose “Rise Up Amberness” so I bought one climber and one regular rose bush on Saturday. It’s now Monday and I had to throw both of them in the trash, which broke my heart.Most of the roses weren’t deadheaded properly, but figured I could simply fix that at home, boy was I wrong! I didn’t even have these roses for two days and the new blooms had wilted just like they had in your nursery. Upon further inspection, I found that there’s a thrip infestation! The wilted blooms weren’t spent blooms, but a result from a sick plant that shouldn’t have been sold in the first place, let alone at full price!I’m not new to gardening and understand that pests come with the territory, but why would I spend almost a $100 between these two bushes just to have to wean both back to health while possibly infesting the rest of my garden that I’ve worked so hard on?!If anyone would’ve even bothered to check to see why the blooms were wilting so quickly they would’ve seen what the problem was. Now I’m stuck with having to go to another nursery to fix a problem that should never have been mine to begin with.read more

Stopped by on a whim, ended up buying a tree and 15 other plants for our yard. Amber was so kind... and helpful. we were very happy with what we chose. Since we weren’t planning on buying plants that day we did not have our truck with us, and it was Saturday closing time. The Employees were so kind and offered to hold our purchased plants until Monday when we could return to pick them up. When we came back to pick up the plants the employee at will call checked our receipt very carefully and informed us that there had been a mistake and we had been charged for the wrong tree. He said that we could not take the tree we had picked. I asked “well this is the tree we want, so what do we need to do?” He treated us like some sort of criminals!! This was not our mistake we paid what we were told on Saturday. He personally escorted us back to the cashier to pay the difference, like we were gonna make a run for it?! Not upset about paying the difference for the tree but upset with how rude the employee was toward us especially since this was their mistake.read more

Overall a 5 star experience most times, but I found it odd today when purchasing a plant that I'd... never grown before and needed information on. I stood in line at the info desk for awhile before an older gentleman employee asked me what questions I had. Instead of answering, he simply referred me to the planting instructions which came with the plant even after I explained that I'd read the plastic tab and still had additional questions that the tab didn't cover. Google was more helpful, but I wanted the experience from a grower for this region's weather/soil/environment.I'd purchased the plant already from them before waiting in line, otherwise I'd probably have just not bothered given the cost and their disinterest in wanting to help it grow.I'll still come back given the huge range of plants that are not always found elsewhere in the valley, but I wont' bother asking for help on a species.read more

We love Glover Nursery. We're from northern Davis County so we don't make it often, but when we do... it's a good experience. The ONLY reason for the lack of 5 stars, is because we've called ahead to confirm inventory and shown up to discover that the info over the phone was inaccurate and they didn't have what we asked for. I give the benefit of the doubt that maybe the items sold between our phone call and arrival, but in speaking to other employees they'd tell us they hadn't had them in stock for weeks.Oh well, they have an awesome selection of other items and the employees are always helpful and knowledgeable.

Glover is by far my favorite nursery in the valley. Not only do they have a huge selection of... perennials annuals and trees, but everything is organized and labeled in a way that makes it easy and fun to shop and find what you need. I don’t even live close to Glover, but I happily drive past 5 closer nurseries to get to them!read more

Hydrangea Heaven! I love this place and have spent hours roaming around their grounds. I love that... the employees are knowledgeable but not pushy, friendly but not overbearing and that the prices are reasonable. They also have lots of hard to find varieties, like the yellow raspberry plant I was searching for last year. Also, lovely fountains and unique statues. I can't wait to get there this year and start planting!**Would also like to give a huge shout-out to Jessica for helping me out and saving me hours of time the other day! She really went above and beyond and it was SO helpful to have someone fun and knowledgeable to shop with. Thanks Jessica!read more

Great quality plants and service. Will give you a five year guarantee on some plants if you use... their mycorrizae (Mykes) product. Definitely worth it. I've only had to return one plant out of many. Can't beat that!read more

This is the third year in a row that we have purchased our Christmas tree at this nursery. We have... had very few issues with the trees themselves and the customer service here is top notch.The gentlemen who help take the tree to our car and tie it down are always very kind and professional. They do a great job every time. We haven't had any issues with the trees sliding around on the car and they have never caused any damage to our cars.The customer service has always been very professional as well. They are considerate people who always make sure we are happy with our trees.The only issue we had was the first tree we purchased from them. It did dry out a little quicker than we had planned but luckily it was very close to Christmas, so it was no problem. They have a good selection of trees and carry everything from little tiny two foot trees to enormous 10 foot plus trees.I highly recommend this nursery, not only for Christmas trees, but also for gardening all year long. The staff is always knowledgeable and great to work with.read more

This is a great local nursery. When you are ready to get better service and products than you can... find at the big box stores, great over to Glover. You'll find better service, better expertise, and surprisingly competitive prices. The plants are localized to our climate, instead of the Bonnie brand that everybody else sells and who knows where are grown. You'll find a large selection of fruit and ornamental trees, bulk soil amendments (bagged too), bedding plants, and the great variety of goods you'd expect to find at a large local nursery. I'm glad a rediscovered this nursery after Western Gardens closed our local store.read more

We've been to many garden centers over the years and BY FAR Glover is the best around. Everything... we've purchased from them has been high quality and has done very well in our garden. We've also used their delivery services and well as their planting services- both of which were wonderful! They arrive on time and the work is done very professionally. They also have staff that are very knowledgable about the plants and products they sell, which is something other nurseries are seriously lacking with their employees, so that's something I appreciate! All of our purchases from trees, to flowers to veggies have always done great, I couldn't rave about them more!read more

My girlfriend and I decided as first time plant buyers to make this the first nursery we visited in... our quest to find the perfect ensemble of pet safe, shade friendly, and easy to maintain plants because of the rave reviews Glover's has (which I spent an hour reading through simply because they were pleasant to read). Rett kindly greeted us within about 2 minutes of us starting to browse the rows and rows of plants. He asked what we were looking for. We explained and he quickly pointed us to which spots of the nursery would have plants fitting our criteria. He taught us where to look to find plant information which was very helpful to us newbies. He provided wise words: to start small with our plants and to grow our garden as we became more comfortable with our green thumbs. He answered every question we had with knowledge and the occasional--and very welcomed--joke! We will always come back to Glover's after this amazing experience on our very first visit. Thanks Glover's and thanks Rett!read more
