I'm in! I just found this post on Christmas eve-eve. I'm going to get myself a bonsai Christmas present today!... If there's any left.
Q: I have an Alberta spruce "living Christmas tree" I bought and started 3 weeks ago. Can I use that, or am I supposed to wait til the 1st to start hacking at it?

I don't think it was precisely specified, but I think several people have started some styling already. I'm fine with this, but I'm over here just trying to see if my stuff makes it through winter

Thanks. I’m just hoping these guys are tough enough to take the torture.
Will see soon enough.

As stated, I was not very specific. As long as you arent chopping half the tree, or anything too drastic just updating your threads will be fine.

Yeah. I’ve just been posting additional -contest inspired-plants I’ve been messing with.
from now on, I will start new threads for little Christmas tree experiments.
I only have one tree in the race - the first one I posted in my contest thread.
cheers!

Here are my two late entries:
1 - Procumbens Nana which looked great but unfortunately lost a lower branch from heavy wiring.
2 - Alberta Spruce which we actually used as our Christmas tree this year! It has been fooled into thinking its already Spring in the Houston weather.
