Abstract: An artificial Christmas tree with electric separable segments comprising a trunk fabricated of a plurality of separable sections including a lowermost section, an uppermost section and intermediate sections therebetween, the section coupling with respect to each other by sliding the lower section of the next higher adjacent section into the upper extent of the next lower adjacent section, a plurality of branches, each with a pivot pin coupled to an adjacent portion of an associated trunk section to allow movement between a raised inoperative storage position parallel with the trunk sections a deployed operative position wherein the branches form an acute angle with its associated trunk section, each of the branches having artificial needles extending therefrom in a generally radial direction, a base adapted to be positioned on the recipient surface such as a floor, the base having an upper central section adapted to removably receive the lower extent of the lowermost trunk section, electrical components in ea
