Then get a fir tree or a spruce tree... Canadian hemlock makes an
attractiove Christmas tree too I doubt you will find any pine trees
sold as Christmas trees... pine trees are grown for lumber. they get
very large and as they grow they lose their lower branches so don't
have that conical Christmas tree shape.

And besides, the conifers used for Christmas trees produce pollen in
late spring and early summer, by the time winter rolls around they've
long stopped producing pollen and any clinging to the trees has been
washed off by rain.
