There is a company that tried this as a start up actually. You’d adopt a tree, they’d deliver it in a big pot, then haul it back up a field after Christmas. It came marked so you’d get the same tree every year until the pot was too small, then they’d permanently plant it and give you a new tree.
It’s a good idea but more expensive than I’d like, so fake tree for 20 years it is.
