Nothing can beat the sight and smell of a freshly cut Christmas tree.
In order to keep your Christmas tree looking healthy for as long as possible, you will need to follow some simple care tips.
- Once home, remove your tree from its net as soon as possible and store your tree outside in a cool, sheltered spot for as long as possible, until you are ready to bring it indoors and decorate it.
- Make a fresh cut at the base of the trunk, by removing a circle of wood about 13-25mm (0.5-1in) thick. This will help the tree absorb water, stay fresh and reduce needle drop.
- Fresh cut Christmas trees can easily drink a pint of water a day, so we recommend you use a stand with a reservoir which you can top up.
- Keep your tree as cool as possible and away from sources of heat, such as radiators and open fires. The cooler you keep your tree, the longer it will last.

All varieties have a very good needle retention if cared for well.
Pot-Grown Trees
‘Pot-grown’ Christmas trees have been grown in the pot and so are more likely to be successful for growing on from year to year as they can be treated like any other conifer. Trees in containers are thirsty plants, particularly once they are taken indoors for decoration. Ensure their compost is kept moist and remember to position a saucer underneath your pot.
Our pot-grown Christmas trees come in a number of varieties including Blue spruce, Fraser Fir, Korean Fir, Noble Fir, Norway Spruce, Nordman Fir and Scots Pine.
