Tips for getting the most out of your real Christmas tree
If they are looked after well, real Christmas Trees can last up to 3-4 weeks. Here’s our top tips for getting the most out of your real Christmas tree this year:
- A freshly cut tree is always better, but if this is not an option, cut about 25mm off the base.
- Make sure they always have a water supply – the base of the tree should always be immersed in a reservoir of water.
- Keep them away from air-conditioners. Fresh air will keep your tree looking lovely longer.
- Keep out of direct/constant sunlight, too much heat or light will cause the tree to dry out quicker.
- Some tree sellers supply toxin-free sprays which can be used to prolong the tree’s greenness. Apply this liberally when the tree first arrives home.
