  • I live in Norway, and sure, those trees does loose their nedles! My grandmother's kitten (poor thing..) ran into a two week old tree once. Unill then, they had only counted about 20 nedles on the floor, but afterwards, they counted about 20 on the tree... =P

    That's why most of us use that first tree specie now...

  • needles are specialized leaves

  • I'd rather have a potted tree than a cut one. You could change the decorations with the seasons and when it gets too big for the house, just plant it in the backyard (or give it to someone else to put in their yard.)

  • Surely they're needles, not leaves.

  • Loved learning about this especially around this time of year. Keep up the good work! =)

  • Great video. I really enjoyed learning about the origin of the different species of trees.

  • I really enjoyed this one!

  • I was always under the impression that the Christmas Tree was actually a holdover from Pagan times. Ah, well, learn something new every day.

    By the bye, I don't see your breath fogging up. Is it unseasonably warm in Nottingham in December this year?

  • Yay! Great video, nice to see you guys are branching out from just chemistry.

  • I love these videos. Keep up the amazing work! It's great you guys are willing to share your knowledge with the rest of the world in such an entertaining and interesting way! :)
