The first tree was a live 24-foot Douglas fir planted on the west lawn of the U.S. Capitol. The original Capitol Christmas Tree died after the 1968 tree lighting ceremony due to a severe wind storm and root damage. The tree was removed and the United States Department of Agriculture Forest Service has provided the trees since 1969. The 2012 U.S. Capitol Christmas Tree was harvested from the White River National Forest in Colorado.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4.
