Fraser Fir Season at Designs by Lee: Your Holiday Tradition Starts Here
The holidays have officially arrived at Designs by Lee, and our 14-acre garden center has completely transformed for the season. The lath house is filled with fresh Fraser fir Christmas trees, our Christmas Shop is stocked with festive décor, and the whole property smells like evergreen and cinnamon.
Whether you decorate early or wait until December, picking out a Christmas tree at Designs by Lee is a tradition for so many Stamford families — and we love being part of it.
Why Fraser Firs Are a Customer Favorite
Fraser firs are known for everything people want in a Christmas tree:
Excellent needle retention
Strong, sturdy branches perfect for ornaments
A naturally symmetrical, classic shape
Soft, kid-friendly needles
A long-lasting evergreen scent
They stay fresh beautifully indoors, making them a top choice year after year.
