New Year has its own flavor. For some, this holiday is associated with the smell of tangerines, for others - fresh baked goods with cinnamon or ginger, and for others - Christmas trees. However, for most people, the aroma of the New Year combines all of the above smells, which is why, on the eve of the holiday, fruit vases in many houses are bursting with an abundance of citrus fruits, candy bowls - gingerbread, and the main decoration of the apartment is a green beauty - spruce.
A natural tree is a true Christmas decoration, because only a living tree can exude such an exciting aroma. Yes, artificial spruce can decorate a room, but, unfortunately, it is impossible to achieve a pleasant spruce aroma from it even by spraying the tree with all kinds of essential oils and fragrances. Therefore, those for whom it is important to feel the aroma of spruce in the New Year install a living tree in the apartment / house. There are many advantages of natural spruce, but there is also one significant disadvantage - a felled green beauty may not stand in warmth for long, but how much depends on the method of installation and maintenance of it.
In order for the tree to stand in the apartment for a long time and not crumble, it is important to correctly install the green beauty and take care of it throughout the entire period of the tree being in the house.
Firstly, before installing the spruce, it is imperative to update the trunk cut.
Secondly, the tree itself should be placed in a container with water (instead of water, you can use nutrient solutions based on citric acid, sugar, aspirin, etc.), or wet sand.
Thirdly, the lower branches need to be cut off (to clear the trunk 20 centimeters from the trunk cut).
Fourthly, in order for the spruce to stand longer and not crumble, the air humidity in the room should be maintained at least 75%. How to do it? Install a humidifier in the room, in extreme cases - several times a day, simply spray the tree and flowers in the room with clean water using a spray bottle.
How long can a live tree stand in an apartment
In general, how long a spruce tree can stand in an apartment depends to a large extent on caring for a felled tree. If you do nothing at all, but simply place the spruce on a special stand, then it will completely dry out and crumble in two weeks. If you follow all the rules that are described above, then you can double the service life of the New Year's decoration.
