Artificial
Trees
Some season greeters prefer artificial Christmas trees. There are almost as many fake varieties as there are authentic.
Basically, artificial trees come in either plastic or PVC. Plastic is stiffer, less genuine feeling, while PVC has a nice, almost silken quality. As expected, PVC costs about 30 percent more. The most popular tree “species” is the fuller, denser Canadian pine. Almost all “species” come in either green or white. A “crystalline” finish— kind of festive iridescent white—is available in several styles.
These fake trees are not bargains. A 2-foot tree, $250 in plastic and $300 or more in PVC . But then again, you don’t have to buy a new one every year.
