Flocking on this tree is graded from top to bottom, heavy at the crown and thinning toward the base, which mimics snow melting off the lower branches instead of coating the whole tree evenly. At the 8 ft size the tip count reaches 1774 across a 4.8 ft spread, split into 4 sections on a 22-in folding stand. Net weight is 40.5 lbs, so two people should handle the top section. Pink under the white flocking warms the effect in daylight and disappears under colored lights at night. A pair of gloves and a user guide ship with it.
