Abstract
A window-mounted artificial Christmas tree is provided to be located adjacent the inside of a picture window. The artificial Christmas tree extends substantially the full height of the window and has an upright supporting member engagable with a generally horizontal surface of a lower frame member below the window. A resiliently mounted extension member is located at the top of the upright supporting member and engages a generally horizontal surface of an upper frame member above the window. The upright supporting member supports a plurality of artificial tree branches with the lower branches being longer than the upper ones and preferably with the branches at any given height which extend generally parallel to the window being longer than those extending transversely to the window to provide a generally semi-elliptical shape in horizontal cross section. The artificial Christmas tree thereby takes up a minimum amount of space within the room. Further, it is fully exposed through the window to provide the advantages of an outside decorated tree without the disadvantages thereof.
