[Petra]

just had another thought.
a Christmas tree is a cypres, we should keep to the traditional, hey!

Christmas tree tradition depends where you come from Petra.
In some countries they only use Fir (Abies sp), others use pinus sp. As both were scarce where I grew up in Victoria we always used a wild cherry (Exocarpus sp) as a christmas tree

Hi all
Thought about this last weekend and then had to work

Today was at least fine outside when I got home so decided to dress up one for the festive season
Tis a Juniper procumbens nana from cutting, that I have been growing as a full cascade now for a few years

Hope everyone will post their own efforts soon so we enjoy the trees
Be safe all the Christmas season everyone

Cmon everyone!
Get into the spirit and dress up a tree, Still a Few days yet till Santa comes.
Which reminds me, if you have little kids, they might want to watch Santa make his way around the world on the internet. NORAD ( North American Defense Network) Tracks his journey every year
