It all started when Boniface of Crediton saved a little girl from being a vestal sacrifice. With the knife in hand he began sawing off branches from the "sacred trees". That missionary, Boniface, handed out the branches telling the people about Christ and told them to put the branches above their mantels as a token of Gods grace.

The Christmas tree tradition began in Germany as early as the 15th and 16th century. It started when serious Christians started decorating them in their homes. They also used to be referred to as Yule trees.

I think that prince Albert, Queen Victoria's husband, imported one from Germany because it was evergreen. The craze soon caught on.
