mrrnice2 157005 Report post Posted January 6, 2012 Just wanted to share this. My first year married we were in a high rise right on de Maissoneuve Blvd in downtown Montreal, in a tiny apartment. There was a flower shop at street level that sold Christmas trees - maybe three feet high, and already in their own stand. The stand was a bucket with the tree buried in cement that filled the bucket. Ever try to water a tree encased in cement? But, the tree stand was very sturdy.:) Ah, Christmas past.....

You got me going there for a second, Julia when I read "my 10 inch pink..." Whew! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
roamingguy 300292 Report post Posted January 6, 2012 Three letter word why I don't put up a tree C-A-T From personal experience, probably shared by many, not only do they knock ornaments off the tree, but they like climbing the tree...and when a heavy cat gets to the top of the tree what happens...it topples over God forbid they chewed the wires for the lights RG Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
