Better for our air quality, benefits Oregon agriculture vs. Chinese corporations, and they are the real thing.

Almost no Christmas trees are pine trees.

Artificial because it's easier, and definitely cheaper. We have had the same articial tree for about 10 years. I refuse to pay $100 or more for a real Christmas Tree. We stopped buying real Christmas trees when it cost us $50 for one. Now the Christmas trees are $100 or more.

I really would love a real tree, but have learned to love artifical trees to keep alergies under control.

For most of my life, I was an avid real tree person; however, in my later years, I find my artificial tree very easy to deal with, so I am a convert.

Real ones dry out if you don't water them often and the needles come off

I would find a new vendor for the baskets since $300/each is too much. Then we wouldn't need as many sponsors and fundraising efforts.

Why would anyone want to donate money if they are struggling to pay for food and debt right now

No!

I'd give money to clean the homeless out of town however.

How about fixing the roads, lowering taxes.. No way our taxes should be spent on flowers.

Why would I want to make the place for homeless people even more attractive?

Hell NO.. the money you take from us in property taxes and you can't fix the revere and 3rd street pot holes that have been there for a few years. TAKE WANT TAKE WANT. How much can us little people take.

I appreciate the beautiful flower baskets all over town, but, no, that is someone else's responsibility.

If you want to spend money on this town why don't you make productive decisions in the beautification process. Like useful trees and plants like herbs and fruit trees. Or if you're so set on flowers plant native wildflowers that reproduce every year.

City should pay, they aren't improving roads so why should we pay for flowers. I don't go down town because city prefers to cater to those who don't live here
