A reader shared this photo today from Avenue A and 13th Street ... unsure if the remains leaning against the light pole can be counted as a discarded Christmas tree on this March 4.

Why did someone wait until today to throw away their Christmas tree from 2011?

From Third Street just west of Avenue B. Concerned Citizen asks, Too soon? (Or maybe too late?)
Anyway, let's just get Christmas over with. Don't forget to watch the New Year's Eve ball drop next Saturday, Dec. 16!

Oct. 11 (Oct. 12 edition)
An EVG reader submitted this find, spotted yesterday on Stanton Street... complete with a remora tree attached.
We're checking the archives to see if this is the latest that we've documented a discarded Christmas tree...

OK, so not a real tree... still, we can dream of a _ _ _ _ _ Christmas here on St. Mark's Place between Avenue A and First Avenue.

THIS JUST IN.
Jackflashnyc spotted this outside 97 1/2 E. Seventh St. between Avenue A and First Avenue.
Per Jackflashnyc: "Seems to have a good string of lights, stand and one glass ornament, though needles are getting a bit dry."

Thursday's parting shot (aka June 15)

Monday's parting shot (aka June 5)
EVG reader roflo shared this photo today from Fourth Street between Avenue C and Avenue D... where there was a stash of Christmas trees discarded on the sidewalk.
Per Roflo: "Maybe 10 in all, some still with stands. No idea what kind of Christmas time capsule this was… but it smells fantastic, like Christmas in June."

In submitting this photo from St. Mark's Place near Avenue A today, EVG regular Jose Garcia (jg) asks a reasonable question:
If there is any sort of "Best in Show" category might this specimen be worthy of consideration given how much fancier it is than the average belatedly discarded holiday tree?
The question is now in the hands of the holiday steering committee

A reader-submitted photo today on Ninth Street between Avenue A and First Avenue... seems a little early to be tossing a space-saving Christmas tree (unless you need the space for Halloween decorations)...

The aftermath of today's spring cleaning took place on Avenue B near 10th Street. (Thanks to the reader for the photo!)

Flashback to last evening... when EVG reader Russell K. hit the daily double... first on 14th Street and Avenue A (above)... and then Second Avenue at St. Mark's Place... it probably looked festive with some lights and tinsel...
It was a nice way to start spring...

Carol from East 5th Street shares this photo... as seen this morning in the East Fifth Street pathway through Village View... a grab-and-go Christmas tree ready to make someone's home a winter wonderland on this hot Saturday in July...

EVG reader Garth shares this discovery from last evening ... a mostly concealed Christmas-tree-in-June-undercover-of-the-night discard from First Street between Second Avenue and the Bowery.

Why is the SE corner of 2nd Avenue and 5th Street a dumping ground for artificial Christmas trees?
Photo by Derek Berg
An important question! And one that we don't have the answer to at the moment.
For starters, this pile, now slightly less organized, appears to be the same batch of artificial Christmas trees that Carol from East 5th Street spotted back on Friday.
This is on the curb (bike lane) outside the new location of Nai Tapas Bar at 84 Second Ave. and Sushi by M at 500 E. Fifth St.
Why did someone have 10 or so fake trees in their possession? Why not simply put them in storage until it's time to decorate for Christmas this coming July 4 weekend?

OK! So they are artificial... why discard them now when you need to put them up again in early August?
