I don't know if it's really all that good for them, and especially if you add the drops that's supposed to keep the tree living longer. One time we did buy a real tree and added something to the water, but before the tree was put down into the tree stand, I used a large cone (I saved from having a large male dog neutered) around the base. It fit really nice over the stand and I could just loosen the tie when I had to add more water. |
