Reader Submissions: Living Christmas Trees - Show Off Your Living Christmas Trees

See Published Submissions

Many people use either fresh cut Christmas trees or artificial ones. Both have their positive aspects, but both bring up the question about environmental impact.

A newer trend is to use a living Christmas tree in a container. After the Christmas season is over, it can be planted outside. No trees are cut down, and there aren't any artificial products to end up in landfills.

If you're using a living Christmas tree, show us how it's done! Share your story and picture below.
