@JudyEv By next year you might be able to put a few decorations on it also.

It is just the right shape for a Christmas tree.

That's nice. Is it new this year or a carryover from last Christmas?

@JudyEv New a few weeks ago. My wife has developed a new liking for potted plants since moving to this house.

I would love to find a living christmas tree but those are so hard to find here and often they die a few months after Christmas

Even if it grows quite a bit, we could still use it next year.

I like your tree. Mine is artificial and just a little larger than yours. I said I wouldn’t put it up or celebrate Christmas but I’m changing my mind. Leo and my son would want me to carry on. It will be a sad Christmas but I’ll do my best in their honor.

I'm sure it is incredibly difficult at the moment but, as you say, they'd want you to carry on. This Saturday, we are going to my brother-in-law's. It should have been their 50th wedding anniversary but his wife passed away just a few months ago. However, we'll have afternoon tea and honour the day and Kerry in this way.

I am thinking about buying a living Christmas tree. That way; I can plant it outside when Christmas is over.

I think that's a good idea. It isn't such wasted money then although you can always put up an artificial tree year after year I guess.

@JudyEv I know that in the wild they can reach the height of 40 meters, but I have no idea how much they grow in a vase during 12 months.

A few inches I suppose. It's supposed to get to something over a metre eventually.

The can is pretty. The tree is in a separate pot so it will drain into the outside can and not all over the table.

You could decorate it with tinsel or ribbon or cut out some magazine pictures of ornaments and tuck them in.
