We always buy a real one and this year got a tree with a substantial amount of root! This is rare. So what Sis and I did was place the tree is a very large pot filled with compost and a fitted water tray so on 12th Night we can lug it out and plant in the garden.
It's a large Nordic Spruce in attractiv blue-green. It was a Mother and a Father to bring in, it has to be the biggest we have ever had. Costly, too. But Maman paid well for it.
Hvaing a Christmas tree with roots has cheered me up a lot! That it can be left to grow higher still when dug in outside. I think we're onto a winner.
Hight? It's 3.5 metres and I have already dug a big hole in the garden after we planned its best position. The hole will be dunged in later to give our lovely tree a good start once spring arrives. I did board the hole over, mind. We don't want some idiot falling down it!
