It’s that time of year again. The jingles and carolers start appearing on the radio and on street corners, Bing Crosby replacing Bruce Springsteen. And the Illinois landscape changes as well, becoming perhaps even more beautiful than ever. One of the reasons: the addition of the Daley Plaza Christmas tree.
The tree was chosen and cut down on Thursday, and its addition to the city is usually a highly anticipated event. Many flock from miles around to get a piece of the holiday cheer it brings, the peace it instills in this stressful city’s heart, the majesty of its towering form that blithely reminds the world to slow down for a moment and appreciate the little things. The things that make the holiday season such a special and wondrous time.
But why go all the way to Daley Plaza to enjoy this serenity. It’s not hard to buy mature trees online, especially when using iTrees. And we have evergreen trees akin to the leafy ornament that offers such joy in Daley Plaza. All you have to do is choose an evergreen tree, and we will take care of the planting. And since it is already a mature tree, you can have that peace as soon as you so choose.
Just remember, planting season ends as December begins, so if you want a mature evergreen tree as part of your Illinois landscaping project before they start appear indoors, then time is of the essence.
