I choose the Rockefeller Christmas tree every year. Here's how I spot the perfect spruce and get it ready for NYC.
This as-told-to essay is based on a conversation with Erik Pauze, the head gardener at Rockefeller Center in New York City. The following has been edited for length and clarity.
I understand the enormity of the responsibility. The arrival of the Rockefeller Christmas tree officially ushers in the holiday season in New York City. Once I find the tree, I visit it several times no matter where it is to water, feed, and measure it. Moving the tree is an operation in and of itself that can take months to plan and execute — from wrapping each branch so it doesn't bend or snap to compressing the width down so it's fit for travel. That preparation process alone takes seven to 10 days.
