no. the sprout from a tree comes from the trees roots, which have already been chopped off in this case. however, if there are still any healthy, small branches, you can cut them with a sharp pair of pruners at an angle and stick them in a jar or vase of water. keep the vase full of water and fresh and pretty soon, roots will emerge! after a couple months the roots will be long enough for you to plant the new shoots in a safe place outside. make sure they always have plenty of water! If the shoots you trimmed dont make roots after you put them in a vase, they were probably already too old.

This is in addition to the answer above. Actually our Christmas tree is doing exactly that. I have never seen this before. We got it about a month ago (it's Jan 3rd today). It's been watered well & sits by 2 large windows during the day & has bright lamps inside near it at night. It's still drinking a lot of water - 2 wine bottles of water/day (the bottles are easy to get under & pour into tree stand without spilling). A week ago I first noticed what looked like tiny pine cones appearing all of the tree, mostly in clusters of 3 or more at the end of branches. Now these are all opening up with fresh light green new sprouts!! I'm going to cut several branches before we put the tree on the curb & put in water. I almost hate to even put it on the curb tho!! Oh and it's a Balsam. I'm pretty amazed!!

I have seen a lot of cut Christmas trees and have never seen one sprout new growth.


My dads a Christmas tree farmer and yes it is possible that one could put off new growth if it had enough water and the right growing conditions, but it is probably rare that it could happen
