Lowes in Greenville, MS has free trees, bad thing about it I'm not in my truck.
It take you a min to go back there :yikes i drive by there every week in the summer
Wonder if any other Lowes or Walmarts are doing the same thing?
Bet you'd get better results with Bamboo over Scotch Pine!:twocentsQuote:

We need to put a lot of dense shallow cover in the lake & I think these might work. Although I'm not very sure about scotch pine. Cedar would be better I think.Quote:

Degray has Hybrids but they can't help.:twocentsQuote:

So what's everyone's opinion on the effectiveness of this type of Christmas tree?
They are not a waste of time. If that's all I had I would use them. Just let them turn brown and dry first before sinking.
There may be better options over scotch pine, but hey, Free is Free!!!!!
