Real or Man-Made?

Christmas trees? I won't go artificial. I want the smell, to water it, to throw it on the curb for disposal January 2nd. I like blue spruces, but the needles are a bit prickly, making the Fraser Fir a strong candidate. This is not a good year for the Fraser, however, at least the crop out of North Carolina.

What do you prefer? A menorah? Post a pic, I would but we're not decorated yet, the branches are still dropping.
Personally I like the white fir, smells like citrus when you crush the needles, not to be confused with white spruce which smell like cat pee when you crush the needles.

I prefer real trees but couldn't tell one from the other.

Have gone the fraser fur route the last few years and they've been good. I think the comment about it being an off yr. for them is correct. Prices seem higher than last year too.
