1.Tell your tree how much you love it. Stare at your tree and whisper words of affection in a calm voice.

2.Choose a healthy tree by gently grasping a branch while pulling it toward you — very few, if any, green needles should remain in your hand.

3.Always make a fresh cut on your tree before placing it in your stand.

4.Check the water level daily to ensure the tree never drinks the bowl dry.

5.Never let your tree run out of WATER!

6.Never place your tree near heating vents, fireplaces, or other sources of heat.
