How do I make my christmas tree last?
Whats the best way to keep a Christmas tree from drying out? I put it in a stand that contains a couple of inches of water every year and still it dries out by the time Christmas comes. Is there something I should add to the water?

make sure it has a fresh cut trunk you might have to trim a little off if it is a pre cut tree. Keep it away from sources of heat as much as possible and I add sugar to my water.
