1. Spray the tree with an antidessicant or antiwilt product to minimize needle loss.
2. Locate your tree in the coolest part of the room, away from heating ducts.
3. Place the tree in a large plastic or galvanized tub to hold root ball.
4. Stabilize the tree in the tub in a straight and vertical position using rocks or bricks.
5. Fill empty space around and on top of the ball with mulch.
