I've never used a real tree.

My family used to use a real tree, but now we use a tiny fake white tree.

Real trees all the way.

For the record, real is the greener option as long as you get an organic one. They're purpose- grown on a tree farm, they aren't that much of a fire hazard if you keep it watered enough, and they're bio degradable- compostable if your city or town has composting. Yes you throw out one every year, but it goes back to the earth.
Oh that's true, I forgot about that. Our city does the composting program after Christmas, a lot of people take their trees there.

always a real tree YAA :awesome:

Fake plastic Christmas trees.

you rung my bell :kiss:

Real trees, I love our annually sneaking into a wood and chopping one down :mellow:

they look so good and I like the smell, it makes it feel more christmassy for me

I doubt it, we live somewhere surrounded by trees just got to make sure the landlord or any of his gamekeepers ain't about.

In England can you still get on trouble for hunting foxes and such?

They were hunting about 2 weeks ago in our field I think but they used quads instead of horses in the snow. I'm not really sure what they're allowed to do, maybe just shoot them ? :\

I have a fake tree but prefer a real tree

 

I've had a fake tree for 5 years :shrug:

For the record, real is the greener option as long as you get an organic one. They're purpose- grown on a tree farm, they aren't that much of a fire hazard if you keep it watered enough, and they're bio degradable- compostable if your city or town has composting. Yes you throw out one every year, but it goes back to the earth. An artificial one is made from plastic and metal that has to be pumped out of the earth or mined, processed, shipped, manufactured, and shipped again. Sure you will use it for 10 or 15 years, but when those years are up and it gets ragged and you replace it, the old one will go to the dump and sit there. Forever. Eventually to be joined by it's replacement.

 

 

That sounds nice :awesome: but we don't have those kinds of farms that sell you real Christmas trees in here :disappointed: or any farms that sell you real Christmas trees for that matter. If you want a real one, you have to kill a tree and well, you may plant another one to replace it, but you'll have to wait years for it to grow.
