A few helpful tree care tips will enhance the enjoyment of your Christmas tree
and keep it fresh and fragrant throughout the holiday season. After you bring
the tree home, cut one-quarter inch off the base of the trunk. Keep the tree
outdoors in a container of water. Protect it from the wind and sun until you're
ready to decorate. This helps the tree retain moisture.
Before you bring the tree back into your home and place it in a stand, make
a fresh cut a minimum of one-quarter inch from the base of the trunk. This re-opens
the trees stem so it can take water. Immediately place it in the stand with
fresh water. Don't allow the water level to drop below the fresh cut or the
stem will reseal.
Remember, trees are very thirsty. They may drink from 2 pints to 1 gallon of
water a day. Use a stand with a 1 gallon capacity or more. Check it daily and
supply fresh water as needed.
