I've never had a problem with our tree drying out, and we buy it on Thanksgiving. They usually trim the bottom so the water is better absorbed into the trunk. We use the solution that you can buy to add into the water to give the tree extra longevity.

Thanks can I ask what species you buy? We did a fresh cut tree from a local farm this year thinking it might be better (it was a pitch loblolly pine) last year though we got a frasier fir that was precut it fared better but still not great. We always do the fresh cut before bringing it inside.
