The pores can become blocked with sap very quickly, so a fresh cut will do your tree a world of good. This isn’t always practical, so the most important this is to keep your tree well away from heat, Christmas trees don't like hot environments - they become dehydrated and they lose their needles much faster. Don't stand your tree in close a radiator or fire.
Many people plant their tree in sand or soil, which is a bad idea, as this can block the pores. Get a specially designed Christmas tree stand and avoid the frustrating task of getting your tree to stand straight with bricks and sand!
