Rockefeller Center tweeted about the tree recently. “Coming in at 82 feet, 14 tons, and hailing from Queensbury, New York, meet your 2022 Rockefeller Community Christmas Tree!” the tweet said. “We’re taking care of it, we’re watering it through the mid year,” Erik Pauze, the head landscaper at Rockefeller Center told News10.
“Then about a week and a half back, we came up, we began tying the tree, wrapped each branch exclusively to tie it up.
We need to get it down from 50 feet to 14 feet so we can go on the Avenue,” he made sense of.
The tree, which is assessed to be between 85 to 90 years of age, was given by the Lebowitz group of Glens Falls, the station reports.
When the tree is raised on Saturday, Nov. 12, it will be embellished with in excess of 50,000 Drove lights and finished off with a Swarovski precious stone star, revealed NBC.

Last year, without precedent for the custom’s almost 90-year history, the tree in plain view was from Maryland. The 79-foot Norway tidy was chosen from the town of Elkton, a 140-mile journey from Rockefeller Square. The 2021 braid was given from the yard of the Cost family, who was available in N.Y.C. for the 80-year-old tree’s appearance.
“We never figured a tree on our property would be chosen for Rockefeller Center. No, not in 1,000,000 years,” Devon Cost said on the Today show.
“As a family, we’ve gone from, ‘No, we can’t let this tree go,’ to now, we stress over it. We stress over how it endure a tempest or a weighty downpour or weighty breeze.
Thus, we’re extremely eager to have it go to New York City,” he said.
Since the custom started in 1933, the tree has most frequently been obtained from Upstate New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and Pennsylvania.
Different trees have come from as distant as Canada.
