When you next need a Christmas tree (and by my calculations that should be in about 11 months' time), whatever you do, you must buy it at Lowe's - even if that means one or more journeys across the Atlantic.
My wife bought ours at the aforementioned chain of garden centres at the beginning of December. Since then it has stood - unpotted! - in our living room, and yet has shed no more than about 15 needles in all this time. Moreover, it still looks fresh and not in the slightest bit droopy after its six-week trial by dessication. I've had artificial trees do worse than that!
What's the secret? I haven't a clue. But at least I know where I'm going for this year's tree.
