The beautiful tabletop tree measures about 12 inches from the base to the top. It lights up to be even more beautiful in the dark. A considerate touch is a 6-hour timer which leaves it on for 6 hours and off for 18 hours. This way you are not wasting your batteries. (3 AAA batteries not included). The tree, the cardinal, the mistletoe, and lights. What else could you possibly hope for?
