7.5 FT Snow Flocked Pencil Christmas Tree with 1189 Hinged Branches

A conventional 7.5 ft tree spreads four feet or more. In a condo, a narrow living room or the corner beside a staircase that is the whole space, so the usual answer is to drop two feet of height and lose the presence that made you want a tall tree.

This one keeps the height and takes three feet of floor. It fits in a corner, beside a stair or in the gap between a sofa and a wall, and the flocking gives it visual weight that a plain slim tree does not have.

7.5 feet on three feet of floor

Seven and a half feet of tree on a three foot spread. Allow a nine foot ceiling once the stand and a topper are counted, and measure the corner: three feet is narrow for the height but it is not nothing, and a pencil tree pushed too tight to a wall loses half its shape.

Three sections, hinged branches

Each section drops onto the one below and the branches swing out on their hinges rather than being hooked on individually. At 1189 branches that is the difference between an evening and an hour, and the same hinges fold everything back against the trunk for storage.

Fluffing is the whole job

The manufacturer's before and after pair is unusually honest: out of the box the tree looks thin, and it takes spreading every individual branch to get the shape in the photographs. Its four step diagram shows how, working outward along each branch and angling the sub-branches up and down.

PVC and PE, on a folding stand

Two leaf shapes in two materials give the foliage gradation rather than one flat texture, and the maker describes both as odourless and non-toxic. The stand is foldable metal with non-slip foot pads, which keeps a tall narrow tree from creeping on a hard floor.

Full height on a pencil footprint, on a folding metal stand.

Two leaf shapes in mixed PVC and PE for natural gradation.

Heavy white flocking across the foliage rather than a light dusting.

Branches drop into place as each section opens, and fold back to store.

No lights fitted, so the string, its colour and its density are yours.

Iron rather than plastic, with non-slip foot pads to protect the floor.

Keeps a tall narrow tree from creeping on hardwood or tile.

Three sections with the branches folded in, and a stand that flattens.

If the only free floor is a corner or the strip beside a window, this is the shape that fits it. Height reads as presence from across a room in a way that width never does.

Heavy flocking on a narrow frame is the most striking version of a white tree, because the silhouette is simple enough to read as a shape rather than a mass. It carries silver, glass and pale ornaments best.

Unlit means the colour, the density and the brand are yours, and it means the tree does not become disposable the year a factory wired string gives up.

What we stand behind

• The tree is unlit and the ornaments and topper in the photographs are not included. The manufacturer marks this on its own images.
• The 7.5 ft height, 3 ft width and 1189 branch figure are read from this SKU's own dimension panel, which also matches the product title.
• The written specification block on this listing reads 6.5 Ft, tree width 2.6 Ft, 829 tips and 14 lbs. Those figures belong to a smaller version of this tree, not the one sold here, so we have not used them and we do not quote a weight.
• Flocked finishes shed during shaping and through the season. There is a lot of flocking on 1189 branches. This is normal and is not a fault.
• Ships from a Canadian warehouse, free shipping over $150. 14 day returns, unused and in the original packaging.

Is it 7.5 ft or 6.5 ft?

7.5 ft. The product title says 7.5 ft and the manufacturer's own dimension panel on this listing reads 7.5 ft by 3 ft with 1189 branches. The written specification block underneath gives 6.5 Ft, 2.6 ft wide and 829 tips, which are the figures for a smaller version of the same tree. If exact height is critical, ask us and we will confirm with the supplier before you order.

What is the net weight?

Not published for this size. The 14 lbs figure in the listing text belongs to the 6.5 ft version, so we will not quote it here.

Does it come with lights?

No. It is unlit, which on a tall tree is worth having deliberately: you choose the colour and the density, and a failed string is a string to replace rather than a tree to replace.

Will the flocking come off?

Some will, mostly while you are spreading the branches the first time, and there are 1189 of them. Lay a sheet down for the first setup and vacuum once afterwards. It drops off sharply after the first season.

How long does fluffing take?

Longer than you expect. The manufacturer publishes a before and after photograph and a four step diagram precisely because the tree looks thin until each branch is spread. Set aside an evening for the first year; after that the hinges hold much of the shape.

What ceiling height do I need?

Seven and a half feet of tree plus the stand and a topper, so nine feet is comfortable and eight and a half is the practical minimum.

How many lights should I buy for it?

A common trade rule of thumb is around 100 bulbs per foot of height, so roughly 750 for a 7.5 ft tree. A pencil shape needs rather fewer because there is less depth to fill. That is guidance, not a manufacturer specification.
