Firstly, it's important to understand how vital a role watering plays in keeping your Christmas tree looking vibrant and healthy. Think of your trees like cut flowers and the stand like a vase. In a very similar way to the flowers, a Christmas tree soaks up water from the bottom, which means the vase or stand needs to be topped up every now and again. Without access to water, your tree will dry out, resulting in brittle needles that turn brown and drop off. Not the look you want to come downstairs to on Christmas morning! This Christmas tree stand does more than just keep your tree stable. With a built-in water supply, the Cinco Express 10ft real tree stand continues to nurture your tree long after it has been cut.

Dr. Gary Chastagner, Plant Pathologist and Extension Specialist at Washington State University, an independent researcher and expert in Christmas trees, says that Christmas trees will continue to use water after they are cut in the field. It is this ability that keeps the tree looking and smelling fresh for extended display periods. But there are factors that will affect how long the tree will be able to do so. You want a tree stand that will function to serve these factors. As for the kind of water to use, plain tap water is just fine. You might be advised to add sugar, aspirin, lemonade or even vodka but most experts agree that plain water works best. How to hide a Christmas tree stand Setting up your tree stand away from heat sources, such as radiators, will prolong help your Christmas tree look fresh for longer. What kind of water do you put in a Christmas tree stand?

Whether for an indoor or outdoor display, a Christmas tree stand is essential for keeping your live tree upright and preventing it from toppling over. Available in a range of sizes for Christmas trees up to 8 feet tall, the Cinco Advantage tree stand is designed to hold up to two days worth of water. It is constructed from sturdy plastic that will hold your tree steady throughout the festive season. The low design makes it ideal for trees with plenty of foliage around the bottom, so you won't need to lop off branches to make the tree fit. There's no denying that Christmas tree stands aren't exactly pretty, especially not compared to the twinkling lights and shiny baubles that adorn the rest of the tree. For this reason, most people cover their stand to make the bottom of the Christmas tree look more appealing for Santa to (hopefully!) leave all those presents underneath. Although aimed at real trees, tree skirts can also be used with artificial Christmas trees. They'll hide the stands and any unsightly wires or extension cords.
