Spode Christmas Tree
What's the difference between the Lenox china : Spode Christmas Tree and Christmas Trees around the World?

I'm looking for the 1991 Spode Christmas Tree annual plate and I found one on ebay listed as "Lenox Annual Around the World Christmas Tree Plate".

Anybody know the difference?

The Lenox Spode Christmas Tree from china is not a true evergreen conifer since it is not a members of the genus ‘Abies’.
It is actually a sub-tropical plant from eastern Asia and more along the lines of the houseplant by the name ‘Norfolk Island Pine’.

Most places around the would use true evergreen fir trees at Christmas time such as the Fraser Fir, Balsam Fir and the Colorado Blue Spruce...

THIS IS A GARDENING SITE not a place to find out whether or not you have crappy china
Since I made up my answer about the conifers from China and I don't know anything about Lenox China - you might be better off checking in a different category.

Hope you find your answer. It would be a bummer to get ripped off.

Er, come again?

Decorating a tree for Christmas has been a worldwide tradition since 1510 when the first tree was found adorned with candles in Latvia. Seeing as how it is the 21sy century this tradition has been around for hundreds of years and has become a symbol for religion, giving and the Christmas spirit. In fact, every year in the United States there are approximately 25-30 millions Christmas trees sold. Christmas trees are not all pleasure though; there is a lot of work that goes into the proper care of a Christmas tree to get the most out of your Christmas investment. Here are some tips you need to know if you want to keep your tree alive and healthy for as long as you can.

The first thing you need to remember about your Christmas tree is that half of its weight comes from water. Because of this it is important to ensure that your tree gets enough water while in your home. The most effective type of stand to use for your tree is a standard reservoir type, this stand will keep your tree the freshest and minimize tree needle loss. Also, when looking for a stand, make sure that the stand will be big enough for the whole trunk of the tree to fit in it without having to whittle away at the base. When you bring your tree home make a fresh cut approximately ½ away from the base, cut straight through, not at an angle or so that the trunk comes to a point. This cut will allow the tree to take up as much water as possible. After you have trimmed your trunk place it immediately into your stand filled with water. The general rule is that stand should hold 1 quart of water per inch of stem diameter. Make sure you check your stand daily to ensure that there is enough water in it to keep the tree alive.

After your tree is in the stand you need to make sure the stand is in an appropriate place. Appropriate in this sense is defined as away from any source of heat such as fireplaces, heaters, heat vents and direct sunlight. The lower the room temperature the slower the drying process of the tree will be.

Finally, when decorating your tree check all light strands to make sure there are no noticeably wore spots. If the wires are worn, replace the lights immediately. Also, keep in mind that use of smaller lights will produce lower heat and will reduce the drying process. Make sure that you are not overloading the electrical circuits. A small spark can catch your whole tree on fire and possibly your home. It is also a good idea to turn off the tree lights when you leave your house.

Taking care of your tree and placing it in the right surroundings, with the right decorations will allow everyone to enjoy it for as long as possible. It will also lessen your concern over the possible dangers a fire could pose. Remember, having a tree is not unsafe unless you make it so. So always monitor your tree for freshness and remove it from your home as soon as it is dry.
