National Tree Company is not exaggerating when they describe their trees with the "Feel Real" technology.  The tips are a different material than the main part of the branches providing for a more realistic appearance and feel the way that trees grow in nature.  It is beautifully full and not exaggeratedly perfect in shape which gives it an even more realistic appearance.  I highly recommend to anyone looking to add a beautiful item to their Christmas decorations that is sure to please year after year!!
