I'm in the middle of decorating as you can see in pic. Nice tree.  My decor is tropical so looks great.  The bending and manipulating of the tree sucks but what can you do,  wish it came ready.  Yes the pot is ugly and really tiny,  but it gives me the opportunity to get a nicer bigger pot, I'll add some artificial mulch in it and etc. Next time I'll order something maybe thicker but still a nice tree.
