What do they grow that far south? Our local farm had Virginia Pines and Leyland Cypress. The Virginia pines had a good smell.

I am a bit confused. Are you saying that you give out coins instead of candy, and think that it is too bad that the kids don't get candy like you did as a kid?
I remember Coke in paper Coke cups, candy apples, popcorn balls and candy. It was rather magical by to days standards.
I don't recall exactly what they were called, it's been 10 plus years. I do recall the needles being about 3 inches long and very soft, non totally like those plastic dusters with the exploded tips.
Yes, at least coins can't be laced with razor blades very easily and the kids get something they can safely keep.

Why don't you give them candy without razor blades?
I just walk over the hill from my house, cut one down, bring it home, done.

You'd think the neighbors would catch on to that eventually. One by one, seeing their back yard trees disappearing each year. ;-)
