It's hard to have a holly jolly holiday season when your apartment can barely fit you, let alone a human-sized balsam fir. However, these live tabletop trees and plants stand no taller than a few feet and are totally rewriting the Christmas tree tradition. Companies like LL Bean, Williams Sonoma, 1-800-Flowers, and more have solved our big-on-holiday-cheer-small-on-space crisis with their adorable tabletop Christmas trees (some even have lights!), which can be delivered straight to your door.
Potted in colorful pots, burlap, metal cans, and more, these tabletop trees are beyond cute. From familiar pine and spruce trees that will fill your space with the scent of the holidays to less traditional rosemary plants, each is ready for some ornaments and lights to make your holiday merry and bright. Just tuck one into your entryway, on your coffee table, or even in your bathroom! The trees are ideal for apartments tight on space or homes in search of a little extra holiday cheer. Heck, you can even squeeze one in your bedroom if you wish. Give yourself some room to move this holiday season with these adorable mini trees ahead.
Cardinal Potted Spruce
The Cardinal Potted Spruce ($60, originally $70) comes pre-decorated, so you plan on opening up a box of holiday cheer. The tree's 24 inches tall and looks great on a side table or as a dining table centerpiece. Pick it up for your next holiday dinner party and prepare for compliments to roll in.
Merry and Bright Tiny Tree
The Merry and Bright Tiny Tree ($60) makes the perfect accent for a small apartment. Resting at 22 inches tall, the tree comes with a red felt pot cover that's decorated in festive pom poms. This tree does best in indirect sunlight and requires watering once a week.
Gnome for the Holidays Cypress Tree
How adorable is this Gnome for the Holidays Cypress Tree ($55)? The lemon cypress tree arrives in a gnome-inspired planter with long dangling legs and a festive sweater that gives it an elf-on-the-shelf feel. It also comes with a pom pom garland to further accentuate its festive look.
Woodland Tabletop Live Tree With Lights
The Woodland Tabletop Live Tree With Lights ($74) comes in a stunning red pot and is already prelit for your festivities. All you need are three AA batteries and it will be ready to go faster than you can say "ho ho ho" (it rhymes, OK?). Trimmed with pine cones, this tree is incredibly festive.
Tabletop Prelit Christmas Tree
This two-foot Tabletop Prelit Christmas Tree ($50, originally $70) would look perfect in an office or bedroom. The tree has clusters of ruby-red berries and woody pinecones that make it appear as natural as it'd be found outdoors. Its faux wood planter adds to the tree's appeal, making it ideal for any space in your home.
Potted Spruce Tree
Keep it simple with the Potted Spruce Tree ($57, originally $60). The evergreen comes planted in a rustic basket with 20 battery-operated fairy lights to add festive flair. Sitting only 24 inches tall, this spruce tree is an easy one to find a home for.
Fresh Tabletop Christmas Tree With Lights
The Fresh Tabletop Christmas Tree With Lights ($100) will be shipped to your door in 48 hours to ensure it's fresh. There's no doubt you'll enjoy the fragrance this Frasher fir tree gives off — you'd think it was full size! Equipped with a string of lights, this tree will make a great addition to your home.
Costa Farms Live Christmas Tree
The Costa Farms Live Christmas Tree ($23, originally $26) makes the perfect holiday centerpiece. The Norfolk Island pine is low maintenance and comes in a decorative wrap that amplifies holiday cheer. It even arrives with a tree topper and ornaments, so you can get the full decorating experience.
Burpee Live Tabletop Christmas Tree
The red accents on this 18-inch Burpee Live Tabletop Christmas Tree ($20) will liven up your home. The ivy tree is relatively easy to take care of and only needs to be watered when the top inch of its soil is dry. We love its red bow tree topper for adding a touch of festive spirit.
The Spruce Tree
We love the attractive tree pot that The Spruce Tree ($45) comes in. The tree's deep green color accents its planter beautifully, and its spiky needles are ideal for hanging ornaments. Decorate it with tassels and lights or leave it bare for the holidays — the choice is yours.
