( 1 )...... We  want to  Remind you,    NOT  to   OVER  fertalize   your   Totally  LIVE  Trees,    

         We did that already,  and   wiped out a few trees.    Sometimes  you have to Learn the Hard way.    Take our Advice   and  go   VERY  Sparingly,   with the  fertalizer.

           Nowdays,    we  use   A   Very TINY  amount  of fertalizer,    (way less than the directions on the   container),     and    allow   Long Periods of time,    in  between   feedings.    
          If  you have   Good  Dirt,    your  trees will  have  A good supply of nutrients,      and   just adding  tiny amounts,  of  Plant Food,       maybe in   spring,   and  maybe  A  Tiny Bit,    in the fall,    works well  for us.

 
          ( 2 )...  And  Don't  forget,    to   MIST   your  Live Tree, ( with Distilled water )  while it is  in   your  house  for   christmas.         A  couple / or few   times  per  Day / Night.    The Inside of  a House  Can Dry  out  a  tree    pretty  fast,    if  it  is not watered  and   Misted  enough.    Don't  forget to  UN-Plug  your christmas Lights,   before  misting......  Just  Sayin...grin.

 

          ( 3 )...  And,  water  your Trees   sparingly,   while they  are inside  also.     every  few  days  or so......   Be Careful,   NOT  to  Overwater.  

ONLY   ( One person )   waters the tree  ( ONCE )    every   few days,  or so. 

 

          ( 4 )...  Also   remember     NOT   to    KEEP   your    Totally  LIVE   Christmas  Tree,     Inside,    After  the Christmas Holiday.    

Natural  Live  Evergreen Trees     are  not ment to be  Inside House Plants.

They   are  Naturally   "OUTSIDE"  Trees.    And   REQUIRE    a   Winter  season,    each   growing  season,     ( each year )       For them  to  function  and  grow   properly,    and  for them to  maintain   good   Tree Health.     Just  bring them  Inside,   for  a  Brief  period of time,  around Christmas,   then  BACK  Outside,  where  they  truly belong,   when  Christmas is  Done. 

( We bring ours inside,   rite before christmas,  then back out   after the 1st )

 

After  the Holiday,  just take   them  back outside,   and care for them all year,    outside,  until  next   christmas.    It's   Easy as  1,  2,  3,

 

( 5 )...     When we  Initially Buy Our  Live Trees  from the nursery,   We also buy   some  Planter Pots,  much Larger,  than the  ones  the trees are currently  growing in,  when we buy them.   

We also buy a few bags   of  the   best   NON-fertalizing   ( reg potting soil )   that they have on hand,     along with some   small  lava rocks,  and some   perlite,     for drainage,           So we can Immediately  Transplant our trees  into  larger containers,   as soon as they arrive home.    good dirt,   with plenty of  room for the roots  for the next few years.     Easy as  Pie.   and  LOTS  of   GREAT  Fun   too.    You will find,  that it is   VERY  satisfying,    getting   Very  CLOSE   to your new trees.   You will  SEE.  and  FEEL,   what   we mean.

( THESE )  Trees,    are   Truly   "ALIVE"
...............................................................................................................................................................................................
     
   ( 6 )...     Make sure that you keep  your Live Trees  Needs    in Mind,  when  you   bring  them inside.   Can we  SAY   Animals  ?????

ALL   animals   LOVE  Trees,  at least we Think so.    We are Lucky,  Our Cat,   is not even the slightest   tiny little bit  interested  in  any of our Live Christmas Trees....    >>  we  ( THINK )  that he  MAY have been  already acustomed  to them,   Outside  our  House  etc.     All year long they were on the Balcony,     then moved into the house  for  Christmas  etc.    But  The Cat  had  been outside  among   his  trees   many  times    already,   before  we  brought one  in.....       and   rite after we brought one in,     he   came up  and smelled it,  then walked away.    We  got  LUCKY....grin.       ANYWAY,    if you bring a  Totally Live Tree  into your house or  Apt   for christmas,   we think  that you should   "GUARD"   and    "PROTECT"   it,   while it is in your home,   giving you  pleasure......

Just Our Opinion,   folks.   it is  exactly  what we do,    even though   we are just blessed,  and  do not need that.....( YET )   grin.   

it  COULD still happen.    the  Cat   could  take interest in the tree,   and start,  some  stuff.   at a later  Date......    so  Be  Careful.   and  WATCH  your animals   around  your tree,      

It is a  LIVE tree,   and  could    "DIE"  or get  Sick,    if  it is  mistreated,   by     any  Animals,   Or   People....  

                                         

     "Please,  Be  MINDFUL    of  your   Live Trees    "NEEDS"
