Try a live
Christmas tree
A living Christmas tree is not only
an attractive holiday decoration but
later can be a valuable addition to
the home landscape as well.
Some o f the more popular living
Christmas trees are Scotch pine,
Douglas fir, shore pine, blue spruce,
noble fir, Austrian pine, redwood
and giant sequoia.
Check at local nurseries to find
out which varieties are adapted to
the d ifferen t growing conditions
found in Oregon.
Living Christmas trees come in
two forms: containerized or balled-
in-burlap. Trees grown in containers
are more likely to survive the in ­
door-outdoor transitions and are
simply easier to deal with, McNcilan
says.
H ow ever,
a nursery-grown
balled-in-burlap tree that has been
properly root-pruned can make an
excellent living Christmas tree, even
if it eggires a bit more work.
Q O e r than taking the tree direct­
ly ■ to o rc once it is brought home,
M c m i'a n recommends a two or
three step relocation procedure that
w ill allow the tree to adjust to
warmer inside temperatures gradu­
ally.
First place the tree in an unheated
garage for four days, then in an un­
heated room in the house, if possi­
ble.
A containerized tree can be left in
its container indoors. The balled-in-
burlap tree must be placed in a tree
stand or pot that w ill support the
tree and allow it to be watered.
Leave the burlap on the roots and
tree trunk while the tree is in the
house, says McNeilan.
Place the tree in the coolest loca­
tion in the room where it will be a
decoration. Keep it away from hot
air ducts and direct exposure to sun­
light. Also keep the tree at normal
indoor temperatures no more than
four to five days.
If the tree isn't watered enough it
will dry out and the roots may be
damaged, McNeilan warns.
Decorations are fine as long as
they d on ’ t break twigs and
branches. Keep hot bulbs away
from the foliage and do not use
flocking or artific ia l snow on the
tree.
When it's time to plant the tree
outdoors move it to successively
cooler locations in the house before
placing it completely outside.
To plant a containerized tree dig a
hole at least twice the size o f the
tree's estimated root area. Mix the
soil from the hole with an equal
amount o f organic matter such as
peat moss, compost, rotted manure,
sawdust or leafmold.
The organic matter is especially
im portant in clay soils that don’ t
drain well, says McNeilan.
Remove the tree from the con­
tainer and spread the roots out as
much as possible. Then place the
tree in the planting hole so the soil
surface meets the tree trunk at the
same place it did when the tree was
in the container.
Fill the hole around the plant with
the mixture of soil and organic mat­
ter and water it in.
To plant balled-in-burlap trees
dig a hole twice the size of the root-
ball and mix the soil from the hole
with an equal amount o f organic
matter. Cut the twine from around
the tree trunk and unwrap the bur­
lap from the upper half of the root-
ball.
