I’ve never seen a tree more droopy than this.
This tree has character, and now it gets to fulfil its christmas destiny.
Is it weird that I kind of like it?
Did your husband do this so you would never ask him to pick up a Christmas tree again?
Is your husband named Charlie Brown? I know him. He’s a good man.
Was this priced the same as the others?
Cute he picked up some sort of weeping Cedar. If it’s the right variety it will kind of be like an alligator and grow to be massive.
Weaponized incompetence at its finest.
Edit: To all the naysayers. Check out this woman’s post history. This guy is a professional.

You know what’s weirder than a man who would pay money for a tree like this? A wife who thinks it’s her fault that she didn’t specify that she wanted an actual Christmas tree.
This is the saddest thing I’ve seen all week.
Edit: changed the word “living” because too many people are hung up on that word and ignoring the point.
I don’t know why, but I find this absolutely hilarious. Your husband seems like good people.
I can’t even understand how this tree exists. Or why it then came to be purchased. It has given me a chuckle though, that’s true
I really hope this is a joke.
This is rage bait.
Edit to add: this is an ornamental species used in landscaping. The price of these species makes it very hard to believe that OP’s husband mistakenly bought it. That’s why I feel this is made up and rage bait.
Like, as a joke?
Man, there’s this type of people that you put them on a task, and they do it all wrong so they are not asked again. Reddit taught me to teach them how to do it right like they are 5 years old and to keep asking them to do the same task until they do it right and continue to get it right.
Ok I actually have this variety in my garden it’s a beautiful exotic type of tree you should plant it if you can or keep it alive long term. I don’t know the name but try Google image search? Actually might be better than a disposable Xmas tree?
Is it too late to return him?
It could’ve been worse.
Just rub it a little
Nailed it.
I love it, make it a Charlie Brown theme Christmas .
only mildly infuriating? 🤣😭😭
Technically he did
Weeping atlas cedar Cedrus Atlantica, Dang great tree. From this humble beginning may grow a thing of great beauty. Alas, weeping so still not so much a tree for decorating.
It looks how I feel
That would be a Larch.
Did you marry Charlie Brown?
No he did not!
Ask the tree to pick up a husband. Couldn’t be worse. Lol.
I love this tree lol. We buy planted Christmas trees for outside the front door and then plant them in the spring on our property. This little fella is the perfect xmas tree
Where’d he go, family dollar!? 😂😂😂
Minecraft spruce sapling
This has to be intentional and is hilarious. If your husband actually looked at this tree and was like yeah that’s a solid Christmas tree, I cannot imagine how they survive lol
I like it.
That’s some weaponized incompetence right there. Oof.
Needs viagra
Spite tree
Looks like a Christmas tree the Addams Family would have
Damn, these are like $1000 at my local nursery. Lucky!
Put a single red ornament on the tip and you have a very themed Charlie Brown tree
This close to Christmas that’s probably all they had left. You really gotta try to get one a couple weeks ahead of time.
All trees matter
Can he only pick up the ” wounded gazelle ” ?
Every tree deserves love ❤️
