All Spruced Up! Our Xmas Tree from Upstate Looks Amazing Down in NYC!
It's the ultimate rags-to-riches success story! A small-town tree from Upstate NY makes it "big-time" going from relative obscurity to then becoming the centerpiece of one of the most photographed, talked about, and celebrated Xmas displays in the entire world.
On Wednesday night, the holiday season began with the annual tree lighting in the heart of New York City at Rockefeller Center, and the highlight was the official unveiling of the adorned tree born in Upstate NY!
For more than eight decades, the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree has stood as a holiday beacon for New Yorkers and visitors alike. While the lights, decorations, and stars have changed through the years, visiting the Tree remains a quintessential New York experience. Rockefellercenter.com
In addition to the throngs of A-list celebrities on hand to perform, the annual holiday tradition was highlighted by our first look at this 90-year-old Norway Spruce that got the Xmas call-up of a lifetime!
