5FT Pot Grown Norway Spruce Christmas Tree

The Spruce is a high quality traditional Christmas tree, lending itself very well in terms of shape and style for christmas lights or decorations.

This Christmas Tree really is what most people think of as the traditional tree at Christmas time. It's the favourite Norway Spruce (Picea abies) variety and has its own unique scent, feel and shape that will remind you of a traditional Christmas. The needles are mid to dark green, the strong branches make it an ideal tree to decorate.

This traditional spruce is the perfect real tree for your home, on a patio, balcony or by the front door during Christmas time. Lovely dark green needles and evenly spaced branches. The Norway Spruce is the original Christmas tree, the variety first used by the Royal Family in the UK that popularised the Christmas Tree in the Britain.

Our traditional spruces hold their shape and colour throughout the festive Christmas season, making it the perfect choice for a perfect Christmas Day!

The advantage of this tree, being supplied in a pot, is that once the christmas festivities are over it can be kept outside either by being planted out in the garden or re-potted and used again next year! Simply keep it well watered in dry weather next summer, and of course over the festive period. It will grow to about 10 ft in 10 years and will grow well in all gardens.

Christmas tree care

Remember to ask your supplier where the trees come from, and to choose a locally sourced and grown tree, or one that has at least been grown in the UK rather than abroad.

When displaying trees indoors, avoid placing them too close to a fire or radiator, as this will cause excessive moisture loss and needle drop.

Cut trees

• When you get the tree home, saw 2.5cm (1in) off the bottom with a pruning saw - We have already done this for you.
• Place in a stand with a well of water in the base
• Check daily and top up the water when the level drops
• With care, cut trees should last about four weeks

Trees in pots

• To reduce stress and damage to living trees, display them in a cool room
• Bring trees indoors as late as possible – the weekend before Christmas is ideal
• Do not keep living trees in the house any longer than 12 days, but be guided by the tree. If it looks unhappy, put it back outside

Either plant the tree out in the garden after Christmas, or (if you want to bring it indoors again next year) grow it on in a container, moving it into a bigger pot annually until you reach the maximum size that can be moved comfortably (about 45cm (18in) diameter and depth).  Soil-based John Innes No 2 potting media is ideal.
