CARE INSTRUCTIONS
Should I water the Tree?
Place it in a water filled stand. Give it a drink of water every day. Please note it is pointless
giving the tree water unless you have trimmed the base to let it drink.
My tree looks droopy and dead. Why?
If you fail to follow the recommended steps your tree will deteriorate because of
excess heat and too little to drink.
Should I cut the stem?
It is essential to cut 2.5cm from the base of the stem before placing the tree in
water and bringing indoors.
When should I bring my tree indoors?
To give maximum satisfaction over the 12 days of Christmas, ideally your tree
should be brought in as late as possible. The earlier you bring in the tree, the
earlier it will lose some of its freshness. You should still buy your tree early to
ensure you get the tree you want but you should leave it outside sheltered from
the wind until you are ready to put it in your living room.
What temperature should it be, to keep my tree fresh in the home?
Keep the temperature at or below 20ºC.
What should I do to keep my tree fresh in the home?
* Cut the stem
* Keep the tree in water
* Keep it away from heat
* Treat it like fresh flowers
* Give it a drink of water every day
* Keep it away from direct heat
* Keep temperature below 20C
* Treat it like fresh flowers
Why should I buy my tree early if I only put it up just before Christmas?
There is a limited supply of Quality trees, you should buy early to ensure you get
the size you are looking for. You can then store it outside until you are ready to
put it up.
