Does it need to be plugged in?

No. The 35 warm white LEDs run on batteries, so you can place it away from outlets. You will need to swap or recharge batteries over the season.

It stands 36 inches tall and spreads about 23 inches wide and deep. That fits a dining table, console or desk.

Is the stand included?

Yes. The tree sits in a burlap bag base that serves as its stand, so no separate tree stand is needed.

It is built for indoor display. The battery pack and burlap base are not made for rain or damp porches.

35 warm white LED lights. That is a light accent look rather than a densely lit tree.
