what kind of tree is the rockefeller christmas tree

The Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree is typically a Norway spruce. In recent years, the tradition has consistently used a Norway spruce sourced from upstate New York or nearby regions, and the tree is chosen for its classic tall, pyramidal shape that suits the Rockefeller Center display. The tree is cut in late autumn, transported to Manhattan, and adorned with tens of thousands of LED lights, topped with a large star, and lit during the annual ceremony. If you’d like, I can pull the latest specifics (exact species confirmation for the current year’s tree and its origin) from recent reports.
