Nearly Natural 5292 6Ft. Mini Cedar Pine Tree (Indoor/Outdoor),Green,6'

To Nearly Natural, I purchased two of your 6' cedar trees, both at the same time, through Amazon. Although both trees get the same amount of sun, one tree (the tree in the upper left photo) has done well while the other tree (in the right photo) has not. The pine needle pop-on pieces on this other tree have always been more brittle and prone to breaking off or falling off (see the accumulation of pine needles in the bottom of the pot---there were also many pine needles that fell onto the veranda surface which I swept away before taking this photo). Also, many of the pine needle pop-ons on this tree have turned blue in color--you can see the blues in the second photo, even though I had trimmed most of them off at this point. I do, by the way, spray both trees periodically with a UV protectant for plastic like Marine 303 for outdoor fabric and plastics.The trees were not inexpensive. Is there any way I can replenish the plastic pop-on pine needles of the defective tree without replacing the entire tree?

This is a fairly nice artificial cedar, we got it to put some lights on at our front entrance to match a real cedar nearby. It looks good. The tree comes in three pieces, a bottom portion that is attached to the pot, a middle section, and a top section, which just need to be fitted together taking just a few seconds. The metal branches were a little flattened into two dimensions as they came out of the box (probably to make it fit the box better) but since they are metal they can be bent outwards as desired. Just pointing out that because of the flatting that is not an optional step but a mandatory one. The height includes the height of the pot but I understood that before buying so that's not a negative, just an observation. It is for value for money reasons that I give it four stars instead of five, it would be a much better proposition if the price were $100 to $150 less.

These are only 6 feet tall in the sense that the tree is 5 feet tall and the planter is 1 foot tall. They are about 18" wide and come in 2 pieces. Bought 2 of these, need 1 more. The top piece fits real nice in to the bottom piece and only takes a few seconds to connect them into 1 tree. The tree cannot be removed from the planter. Suspect that the tree trunk is cemented to the bottom of the planter. This was the best deal I could find anywhere for a "6 foot" tall evergreen. They are made of plastic. Looks realistic from a distance. Standing within 3 feet of the tree, you can tell it's plastic, though I'm not considering that a problem. I planted these outdoors next to my front porch, underneath the house overhang, which has little sunlight due to front yard shade trees. Good luck drilling a drain hole thru the bottom of the planter. Planter comes with no drain holes. I needed to drill thru an inch of concrete to punch a hole in the bottom so the rainwater can drain out. The wild card here is that I have no idea how long they will look good for, or how well they will stand up to northern Ohio winters/ice.

Months ago this product News $237. We planned to buy many of them for our terrace so started with just one. We went back to purchase more and realized the price had jumped to $437 - NOT worth that price - we took our business elsewhere.

It was intended to block sunshine on front porch. It worked, sorta!
