A fake tree costs more but lasts forever. And it won't dry out if you don't keep it watered. And you don't have needles all over. And you don't have to get rid of it afterwards.
Well not quite, we have had 3 fake trees now over about a 30 years period, they seem to start looking kinda like a Charlie Brown Christmas tree after a while.
