Reply:The evergreen tree is a symbol of fertility (life) because it not only survives in the winter but with all its greenness. Look at most trees in the winter and they are just bare dead-looking things, but the evergreen is thriving (hence the name ever-green). Since Christmas is a holiday celebrating the birth and life of Jesus, the evergreen tree is a symbol to reflect this.
