Our Pot Grown Christmas Trees

Christmas

Pot grown Christmas trees are a lovely alternative to the traditional cut Christmas trees with the added bonus of being a living tree, provided in a pot. These make great choices for a second tree within your home or if you are looking for a focal point by your front door.

Pot Grown Nordmann Fir (Abies nordmanniana)

The unique and stunning silver-green Blue Spruce, which has an exceptional icy-blue hue is the ultimate show stopper this festive season.

This wonderful, timeless conifer is the ideal compact size for those smaller spaces in your home that need added festive cheer. The deep green foliage has white undertones, adding interest and the needle tips have a delicate curve, making them fantastic for holding delicate decorations.

Caring for Pot Grown Christmas Trees

As pot grown trees are designed to be planted outside after use, they have slightly different care requirements from cut trees.

As with a cut tree, once you get your pot grown Christmas tree home, keep it outside in a sheltered area until you are ready to bring it inside to decorate
Pot grown trees are still in their original growing pots, wrapped in a special climate bag. Water the tree, then open the climate bag and water. There are drainage holes in the bottom so the water can drain freely
When you bring the tree indoors, remove the climate bag and place the tree into the decorative cover pot
Position the tree on a protective cloth or mat to help protect surfaces from any scratching or water damage
Water frequently, but be careful not to overwater
