Whilst the tree is indoors you need to place it within a decorative planter or atop a plant saucer (as you would a house plant).

When outside, you can leave it in the pot or even replant it in the garden. A good tip is that when you are ready to move the tree from inside to outside, don’t throw it straight from a spot near a radiator out into a blizzard.

If you can move it into a cool part of the house for a few weeks, such as a utility room, and allow it to acclimatise a little, this will reduce the chance of the tree being ‘shocked’ by the cold, and improve its chances of survival for next year.

The Pot-Grown tree is also a perfect option if you prefer the tree to be outside rather than inside during the festive period. Why not dress it with some colourful lights and brighten up those cold winter nights.

A Note on Larger Pot-Grown Trees:

As these trees mature, their strong taproots naturally fill the pot, sometimes creating a dense, woody look at the base.

For Best Results, keep the roots evenly moist, avoid sudden temperature changes, and plant into well-drained soil when the time comes. With simple care, your pot-grown tree can thrive far beyond the festive season.

Larger pot-grown Christmas trees can have a marginally lower chance of long-term survival, and for guaranteed result’s for garden use, it is best to purchase a slightly smaller size and plant immediately without bringing inside at all.

Very importantly our pot-grown Christmas trees are grown in their containers, rather than being transferred from soil to pot before sale. This allows for a full root system to form within the pot, providing it with the best chance at survival whether you keep it in the container or plant it in your garden. Beware of “potted” trees.

A “potted” tree will not survive for future years.

Make sure your tree is “container grown” to ensure its survival for many Christmases to come.
