A REAL LIVE CHRISTMAS TREE

I get all excited when I read that people insist on buying a "live" Christmas tree because I have been trying to get people to do this for years. Then the article makes it clear that "live" to these people means a tree that used to be alive and has been cut down and is now fading fast. I want people to put a live tree in a pot and keep it alive so they can reuse it year after year. Here is our tree (a Star pine) which we have been dragging into the house for several years now. (The other tree that we used before this one finally got too big.)
