A real tree and major bonus points if it’s a flocked Douglas fir. That’s my peak childhood Christmas nostalgia. I fell in love with this tree that had gold glitter mixed in the flock, it sparkled so beautifully in the white lights. I remember it was $75.00 and back in the 80’s that was insanely expensive, but my dad still got it for me anyways. That’s a Christmas I’ll always remember. My dads 79 now and not in great health, losing his vision, so any holiday I get to spend with him is special. (Yep I’m absolutely crying now)

I LOVE real trees, because I love the scent. BUT with cats...NO TREE is safe!🤣🤣 So instead of a tree I use a quality bushy pine garland (which I bought in January from Target a few years ago....originally $40...got it for $15😁), and hang it from the ceiling. I wrap it in colored lights and hang ornaments that are special to me. I hang it between my living and dining rooms. It's great since I can see all my ornaments from either roo

Flocked trees are gorgeous!! But I haven’t found one that doesn’t shed. I don’t have the patience to constantly be cleaning up after them lol 😂

I love real trees, you get to go up to the place that sells them and pick the perfect one for whatever theme you wanna go for that year! A tall skinny one, a wide one, etc

Nothing beats the smell of a real tree... that being said I have seen a flocked tree decorated for every holiday. Most beautiful was a flocked Easter tree.

I love real trees but I've never had one because of the mess and maintenance. I love Christmas trees though. I have a variety of flocked and traditional green trees and I love them all. I don't have the room to put all of my big trees up anymore but I several large trees and countless smaller ones that I put up through out my house. I may have an addiction. Lol

I adore the smell of a real tree. We use to go out and pick our own tree as children. There are 4 kids in my immediate family so we each got to pick a tree. The atmosphere of going into the tree farm and picking our own tree can’t be beaten by a fake tree that gets pulled out of a box.

National Tree Company has a "frosted" tree that I love. Hobby Lobby used to sell it, but stopped for some reason. It has some light flocking and small crystal like things on it along with berries & pinecones

I love all three types of Christmas trees you have listed. I do NOT care for the pastel colors. Christmas trees need to be green or white, real or artificial makes no difference. In this respect I am very traditional. To each their own! For me .... no weird colors. Thank you

I don't mind green trees lightly dusted with fake snow, but the flocked trees look like they've had an entire blizzard dumped on them!

I do a mid century christmas theme and I have a flocked tree, a pink and tinsel tree! I do love real trees but it's not practical for us 💖

I like ‘em all!! We had real trees every year until the kids all grew up and went to their own homes and now I have a sad little representation of a real one. This may be the year to go back to a real tree! 😊

I splurged a couple of years ago and purchased a beautiful unlit tree that I lit myself with orange lights and all of my ornaments are copper red and metallic.

I'm allergic to the real ones, unfortunately. So I settle for the most realistic flocked artificial tree I can find. Any tree is beautiful.

I used to prefer real trees, particularly Nobel. However, as the years have passed and age creeps in, I've come to love the artificial. Ive done both flocked and green and love both equally. Recently, I've found that with using plump white feather boa's and fluffy flocked piks, I can easily turn my green into a semi flocked looking wintery tree. It's really great to have the options.
