Christmas tree is immersed in water at all times. Never place lit. caudles on or near the tree. Simple Tips for Caring for Cut Christmas TVees 1. Store the tree outdoors on a cool porch patio, or in an area that is protected from the wind and sun to help the tree retain moisture, until you are ready to decorate. 2. When you bring the tree into the house for decorating, make a fresh cut across the butt end of the tree about one inch from the end. Store the tree upright and securely securely place it in a container with plenty of water. Trees may drink up to four litres of water per day so keep an eye on the water level in the container. 3. Place your tree away from fireplaces, radiators, television television sets and other sources of heat. Turn off tree lights when you leave the house and before bed. 4. Avoid the use of combustible decorations. Check all electric lights and connections. Do not use lights with worn or frayed cords and NEVER use lighted candles on a Christmas tree. Have a very safe and Merry Christmas!
