How To: Water a Christmas Tree
Hello, my friend, hello again; today we come together to talk about How To: Water a Christmas Tree and hope the blog can help you.
Help your real Christmas tree last longer with these simple steps.
For many, nothing quite says “Christmas” like a real tree. With it comes the tradition of picking one out with loved ones, perhaps even chopping it down, and then hauling it home to display and decorate. For this natural decoration and its wintry scent to stay fresh, these seasonal traditions must also include continued care.
If you choose a potted Christmas tree, it can spend up to 10 days indoors before it misses the natural sunlight and cool temperatures available outdoors. (You might choose to rotate it out to your patio or porch for a few days at a time to keep it happy.) While inside the home, check the soil daily and water only when it dries out to prevent root rot.
A large, freshly cut Christmas tree will be a bit needier. Yes, even a tree that no longer has its roots requires a frequently replenished water supply to stay fresh. Ahead, see the method for how to water a Christmas tree that will help it last for four or more weeks.
