We have also had a fairly and even down right warm winter. Higher then normal temps really are not helpful in keeping the trees fresh. Given all the factors combined with this being the first time we have seen this issue I tend to give Busch a pass on the blame.

The temps being a big issue for ‘Twas That Night.

It's always been an issue for tge show. The first year was a mess the park upgraded the equipment after that which helped some but clearly hasn't completely solved the problem

Yes, the warm temps don't help but single most important thing in keeping a tree green is water. It is always the one main thing told to everyone who puts a live tree in their home...keep it watered. So I won't give the park a pass on this at all. To me this is neglect on their part. Usually toward the end of CT some of the trees are turning brown but there's still two weeks left before the end of the event and this is the worst I've ever seen it.

Friday I was really disappointed with the park in that a lot of the Xmas trees for CT were turning brown (see pic) or were most of they way there. They really looked unsightly in the day. I guess BGW wanted to keep their water bill down by not watering them and hoping mother nature would do it. The other pic shows that they put some reflective tape on the poles (don't remember it being on them) they put in on either end of the bridge from Pompeii to San Marco. I guess a few people must have run into them.
Honestly, a large part of it is probably that it's been unseasonably warm most of this CT which is making the trees dry out me. The park has never actually watered the Christmas trees throughout the park
 
Would you rather get a new flat or have every lot repaved? Paving is expensive, yo
First impressions are important if the first thing guest experience is a pothole riden nightmare it will effect the rest of their perception of the park. If they want that real most beautiful theme park title ever again then MUST pay attention to things like this.
 
Last week during my visit, I noticed some new paving work on the entry/exit roads around the toll plaza. Certainly agree that the lots needs some new pavement ASAP. Assuming the park will make patches where needed to defer the full repaying of the lots as long as they can.
