The size and shape of this tree are nice but there are two very distinct negative aspects.  First, the tree arrived with a very distinct, heavy musty odor.  The musty odor is so overwhelming that I had to remove the tree from my great room and place it outside, but the odor lingered in the room.  Secondly, the base of this tree is far too small making the over 6 foot tree very top heavy.  The tree will have to be placed in a larger receptacle and weighted down with sand or stones to keep it from falling over.
