Live Christmas Trees are Good For the Environment

Every year, millions of trees are cut down and displayed in living rooms around the world with wonderful decorations and lights. They bring joy to the family as gifts are stuffed underneath them and unwrapped on Christmas morning. What happens to those trees by the end of the year? They are put out on the curb or ground into mulch and the cycle is repeated the next year.

Consider now the advantages to a live Christmas tree (roots and all). Many garden centers offer live trees in pots that can be decorated and enjoyed through Christmas and then planted in the ground and continue living long after the year is over. You will have a tree that is a reminder of that Christmas for years to come and that will also continue to help the environment. You can even decorate it as it grows every year!
