Getting ready for Christmas.

Last Christmas we decided to have a real tree and one with roots. So, since Christmas it has stood on the patio, surviving but looking a little sorry for itself. However, in the last few weeks, fresh green began to appear at the end of each branch. Then, within days, the green began to spread and now the tree is full of wonderful new growth. It should look splendid by the time it next comes indoors for a few days this Christmas.
