"The site is located under the "Hort
Corner" icon, or you can go to it directly at
http://www.urbanext.uiuc.edu/trees/index.html," said Jane
Scherer, U of I Extension urban programs specialist.
The site contains information about the
various types of Christmas trees as well as helpful hints on making
a selection.
"We've updated the site this year, and
it includes links to other Christmas tree sites that people might
find interesting," said Scherer.
There is
even a recipe for Christmas tree cookies as well as instructions on
homemade tree ornaments. The site also includes links to information
about the care of holiday plants.
