Balsam Hill, the luxury artificial Christmas tree retailer, first made a name for itself on NBC's Today Show with its proprietary True Needle™ technology. Injection-molded PE plastic and several different colors of pigment mimic the structure, texture and color of natural evergreen needles to create the most realistic Christmas tree look possible.

This year, Balsam Hill introduced Candlelight™, an as energy-saving, efficient LED Christmas tree lighting option for the indoors. Balsam Hill's Candlelight™ features a soft glow similar to that of regular clear lights.

"Traditional LED lights emit a harsh, bluish light that is much more suitable for outdoor Christmas trees," Balsam Hill CEO Thomas Harman explained. "Our Candlelight™ technology allows people to enjoy crisp LED lighting with the warm, softer glow you'd want for your living room."

Candlelight™ will be available on most tree models in a pre-lit fashion, meaning customers can buy their tree with LED lights already strung on. As for outdoor Christmas trees, the Adirondack Evergreen still features traditional LED lights.

Harman hopes that Balsam Hill's attention to quality, ease and beauty will continue to be a winning formula as he enters his second year in the artificial Christmas tree market. From 2000 - 2003, artificial Christmas tree sales in the U.S. grew to 9.6 million annually and have continued to increase each year. With the U.S. in an economic downturn, those numbers may increase as consumers look for ways to save money year over year with reusable artificial Christmas trees.
