The New Year tree will last at least a month if you add certain agents to the water.

Every home has them. We'll tell you how to make sure your tree doesn't fall off.

How to extend the life of a Christmas tree

Firstly, under no circumstances should you install a Christmas tree near a radiator.

Secondly, the tree needs to be placed in a nutrient solution. For example, based on aspirin, salt and sugar.

For a liter of water you need to take one aspirin tablet, one spoon of sugar and a pinch of salt.

Or you can add a little crushed chalk and half a teaspoon of citric acid to the water.

You can also place the tree in the sand, after watering it with a solution based on aspirin and sugar (three to four spoons of sugar, one aspirin tablet).

Alternatively, you can wrap the tree trunk in a damp cloth and wet it periodically.
