We bought our tree November 26th and after all my efforts to keep the poor thing alive, I've decided to give up. It's a goner. I can lightly graze the top and brown needles will come flying off everywhere.
I'm so fricking pissed off. I made sure to test the stupid thing by snapping a needle when we bought it. I bought tree food. I watered it every day so that the water level was at the top of the stand. It's a very nice tree and it's so cute because there are 3x as many candy canes on the bottom half where baby girl can reach. Hubby said I can't buy another one but surely when he said that he didn't think it would be dead before the first week of December?
