Classification

Caractéristiques de qualité pour homme de Nord d'arbres de Noël

The tree is sorted in only two classes:
* First class in Denmarkt called "Original Nordmann"
* B Trees

Original Nordmann may achieve quality criteria down mentioned
The tree must be attractiv and sellable that's of crucial importance

Christmastrees with this characteristics are called b-trees
The buyer determines the lower quality limit of b-trees

high

The measures for trees should be taken as follows:
The plane of section up to the place where the upper Quirl of the branches is connected with the main impulse.

The size must be always named one of the following size. Or with a combination of these distances:

 075 – 100 cm     175 – 200 cm
100 – 125 cm     200 – 250 cm
125 – 150 cm     250 – 300 cm
150 – 175 cm     

the lower coming end

The lower coming end, which does not have branches, is measured from the interface to the lower Quirl of the branches. It should constitute at least 5% and not more than 10% of the tree height from trees to 200 cm height. Over 200 cm of trees until 15%, if this is not fixed in the contract.

color

The tree should have an consistent color. The color should be green, but a small color variation in the lower part of the tree is permitted.

form

The width of the tree should not be more largely as the height and not smaller than the half tree height.

density

The Quirle of the branches should be evenly over the height of the tree distributed, and he should have sufficient Internodien, in order to be able to guarantee an even density. A growth rule is nevertheless that the main impulse can be longer approximately 35% than last year. The tree can be open or close, but the branch angle is often very important for the impression.

The tree must have the following number of Quirle:

* til 175 cm - 4 Quirle
* 175-200 cm - 5 Quirle
* over 200 cm - 6 Quirle

symmetry

The tree must have only one stock in the approximate center of the tree. The branches must be distributed regularly around the stock of the tree. There may not be broken or dead branches. The tree may have only one point - an upright, short or long one

needles

They should be evenly distributed. They should not have obvious damages - by insects, algae or game -. It is however permitted that branches the needles are missing to the tree on together 10-20 cm. 

cut

To improve the look, to get the right form it is allowed to cut branches. It should not show the interfaces of the tree.
