Christmas Tree Guide: Where to Buy Real or Artificial Trees
T’is the season to be jolly. And a Christmas Tree adds to the festive feel at home. Whether you decide on a real Christmas Tree or an artificial one, there are pros and cons.
Real or Artificial Christmas Tree?
Some years back we decided to get a real Christmas Tree from IKEA. The smell of the tree was a reminder of our winter holidays in Canada and the USA. If you choose to buy a real tree, do note that it requires daily maintenance. We had to take care to add ice to keep the water cold in the base of the tree daily, as well as a repellent to prevent mosquitoes from breeding in the water. Also, the fir leaves would fall and you need to clean regularly. If you get your tree too early, you might worry it may not last through the Christmas season. Last, but not least, the disposal of a real Christmas tree can be quite a task. You will need to chop down the tree into parts to dispose of it or if you buy your Christmas tree from IKEA, you can arrange to have it transported back to them to dispose of the tree organically.
If you decide on an artificial tree, many of the upkeep issues that a natural tree has will be removed. However, you should consider if you have the space to store the tree. Once the tree is set up, zero maintenance is required. If you store your artificial Christmas tree properly, it can last you up to 5 years or more.
