Christmas tree , an evergreen tree, often a
pine or a fir, decorated with lights and ornaments as a part of
Christmas festivities. Christmas trees can be fresh-cut, potted, or
artificial and are used as both indoor and outdoor decorations. While
the trees are traditionally associated with Christian symbolism, their
modern use is largely secular. Many families place presents around an
indoor Christmas tree to be opened on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day.
