Christmas Tree Care Tips

If you are not ready to bring your tree indoors straight away stand it outside somewhere cool and sheltered – you may want to stand it in a bucket of water.

When you are ready to bring your cut tree indoors cut a slice of at least 25mm off the bottom of the trunk to allow the tree to take up water – just like a cut flower.

Display your tree in a stand which has a reservoir of water – this will need checking and topping up on a daily basis as a tree can take up over a litre of water per day.

Adding Christmas tree food to the water will help to keep the needles fresh.

Trees in pots will also need checking and watering on a regular basis.

Stand your tree in a cool place indoors and away from heat sources like fires and radiators as this will cause them to dry out much quicker.
