Christmas tree care tips
-
Give it a fresh cut
Before placing your tree in its stand, trim about 2 to 3 cm off the base of the trunk. This removes any dried sap and helps the tree absorb water more effectively.
-
Keep it hydrated
Your tree will drink a surprising amount of water in the first few days. Top up the water and try not to let the base of the trunk dry out. A well-watered tree stays fresher for longer.
-
Choose the right spot
Position your tree away from direct heat sources like heaters and fireplaces, as these can dry it out faster.
-
Maintenance
Sweep or vacuum fallen needles. If you notice browning or dryness, your tree may be too warm or under-watered.
