Fear not, Texas! H-E-B is still planning to set up its 50-foot Christmas tree at San Antonio's Travis Park despite a small hiccup that occurred during its arrival on Tuesday (November 15).
A branch broke off the tree but it's still in good shape to be put up, H-E-B told MySanAntonio. You'll be able to see the tree in all its glory on November 25. It'll be decked out in handmade ornaments and more than 10,000 white lights. This year's Nordmann Fir tree was sourced from Northwest Oregon.
Every year, the Texas-based grocery chain commits over $250,000 to the transportation, decoration and lighting of its iconic Christmas tree.
