Know All About Your Real Christmas Tree
Decorate your Nordmann Fir with all manner of baubles and sparkly lights, topped with the all-important star or angel.
While artificial trees can look impressive, you simply cannot beat that unmistakable pine fragrance that instantly starts to emanate from this tree to charm the senses, as soon as it is brought into the home. This scent is even thought to have a positive impact on your mood, filling all with even more festive cheer and banishing those winter blues.
Also known as ‘Abies nordmanniana’, this pine tree is coated in dark green needles, which are soft to the touch, making it a cinch to move around the room to get it into that perfect place.
Do not fret about clearing up those pesky needles that typically fall from real trees, as this is non-needle drop variety that will behave itself and keep your home looking tidy and presentable – perfect for when grandma comes to visit for Christmas!
Caring for your tree is a breeze – keep it in a top-notch condition by placing it in a tree stand with a water reservoir, adding water regularly, and placing it away from heat sources.
Going for a real tree, such as the Nordmann Fir Cut Christmas Tree, is also a big plus for those with the environment on their mind, as according to the Carbon Trust each real tree has a far lower carbon footprint than artificial alternatives – particularly when disposed of correctly by chipping or burning.
We supply this tree at eight to 10 years old, 120cm and 150cm tall, and ready to be decorated. You’ll be ‘rocking around the Christmas tree’ in no time at all!
Top Tips for your Nordmann Fir Cut Christmas Tree
- When unpacking your netted tree, saw off 1-2cm from the bottom of the trunk, if you can. Then place it into a tree stand, as this will help the tree to take up water.
- Treat your cut tree like you would cut flowers – they remain fresh for a longer period with water.
- As soon as the tree is cut, place it into a tree stand with a water reservoir, topped up regularly.
- If you are not putting your tree up immediately, store it in a cool, frost-free place.
- When putting your tree up, place it in a cool spot of the room. Ideally place it away from direct sunlight or any sources of heat, such as radiators.
