A lot depends on how wet the soil is that you plant the tree in. I
usually find that I'm effectively planting my Christmas tree in mud -
so I never water it.
Then again, I don't have central heating - so maybe that helps.

I mentioned this thread to my wife..... she said " Yes, you're right,
YOU never water it....I do ".
Oops... about half a pint a day, apparently.

........and she knows it's me who's been nicking the chocolates of the
tree too.

Curses!
