I was going to give mine a trim before decorating and glad I read your post before I did! <br />The tag on the one I bought said that it started out as a seed on the Island of Hawaii. Very cool since I was going to use it as a Jesse Tree. Isaiah 11: 1, 10:"Out of the stump of Jesse, will grow a shoot - yes, a new Branch bearing fruit from the old root. In that day, the heir of David's throne- will be a banner of Salvation for all the Nations." God's Peace to all!

I just couldn't do without one. The idea of having a tender pine instead is strange but I do like its arching shape that makes it look rather graceful. The poinsettia is a nice touch too.
