Edit: I don't know that it's a palm, though. Someone already has a palm Christmas Tree, and the market just started today.
I don't know it either, but that's my bet. The only Christmas Palm we know of is bred. And it feels somehow similar to the situation with 2012 Easter Bunny (the one with tulip). There were some bred ones, but the parentless ones were obtained via Egg Hunt. The time will tell if I was right, though 
Oh sry, I was thinking wrong. So it was for the old rule. Now the right time to open the parcel is, if into the 3 pots is sawed in fresh. Then are anding 4 seeds at the same time. No place will go lost.
I wait with opening the parcel till to the end from the Lucky clover event. It's very hard, but I have to wait.
I think I will wait too. 
This is my first Christmas event, so I still have a lot of Christmas trees to grow. I can't afford to lose a seed when it could be an outcome I don't have yet!
The Market quest was very fun, I enjoyed it.
Edit: Wait - we can hold four seeds right now? 
Yes you can have four. You won't lose one.
Seeds you can have 3 + Postpixie seeds.
Germs you can have with no limit.
If you was sawing in all 3 seeds at the same sawing-time, and then as the next step you open the parcel, you will have 4 seeds. Then, about the 4 days later the 4 seeds will gow up to 4 germs. So all your 3 post are free again. - There is no losing, no risico.
Ok, I understand now, thank you, blobber and Aztekior! I'm very happy there is no loss.
Ooops, it seems I misunderstood too.By opening my package now, I didn't lose a seed I already had, but I'm going to 'lose' a slot when they sprout. I've made things more difficult for myself - I should have waited for my seeds to sprout. 
At least I'll know better for next year!
Congrats to those who have already completed the market quest (I'm still stuck on the first step and no amount of trying or checking last year's posts is helping).
OK, I give up (I think 90 minutes of getting absolutely nowhere is quite enough!).
Thanks for the event! By the way, did the christmas tree seeds get accidently turned off in the wild garden? I can't find any. 
Darn, I think I misunderstood. I went ahead and opened the parcel because I had three seedlings. Two of them just sprouted but I only got one empty pot back, so I guess the seed in the parcel does take a slot. Guess I'll know next time, lol!
Oh, then I got it wrong too. 
How does the Christmas Market work? I clicked at the Pixie which asks for almonds. And then I clicked nearly everything on the market. But how can I bring things together so that there will be a sense in all that clicking? I don't know how this works...
Can someone please help me?
After a helpful advice I got how it woks, thanks for that!
There time it gives us no problem. Blobber, your latets sawing-date is the 15th. The next steps will be at 19th, then at 23th. The 23th will be the first date to saw in the Christmas Star. Your earlyer seeds will let time between. Who wants to use all giving times to saw in Christmas Star, has to wait between by doing nothing. If you want to do so, all is right without problem.
Post Pixie has come again.
Hu, what do you mean with again? Can we do the market twice?
No, not that. I just refreshed my greenhouse.
I got second post pixie too.
never mind, answered

Thanks for the event! By the way, did the christmas tree seeds get accidently turned off in the wild garden? I can't find any.
