The smell of fresh-cut evergreens of different shapes and sizes permeated the air at Patton Christmas Trees in Dallas, where shoppers are expected to take home about a thousand trees in the coming weeks.
To find a noble fir with a “Christmassy” smell that fits just right in their home, Candace Cain said she and her husband, Brian, drove from 40 miles away.
The owner, John Patton, unwrapped a tree. When the couple wasn’t sure it would fit in its designated spot, Patton unwrapped another and another until the couple found one to tie down into the back of their pickup.
