Overview

Hallmark has been creating cards appropriate for Jewish consumers since the 1940s. The company introduced the Tree of Life brand in 1995.

The name Tree of Life was selected because of the significance of trees in Jewish culture. As a tree nurtures, protects and provides sustenance for those living around it, the Torah (five books of Moses that are a form of instruction in the Jewish culture) guides, protects and provides spiritual sustenance.

The top five markets for Hallmark’s Tree of Life cards are:

    1. New York
    2. California,
    3. New Jersey,
    4. Pennsylvania
    5. Florida
