    Here they typically use pine. It's not a native species and useless for the garden - the needles do not mulch or compost easily.

    The take down period is driven by what day the local municipal authorities arrange a collection.

    Buying a living tree in a pot seems like a much more sustainable practice if you have the land.

    This year the nurseries we visited were rather sparse on the selection - went with a Yaupon Holly in the "Charlie Brown" size, one string of colored lights and it's good to go.
