FALLING needles and the bother of; having to provide care and water often puts people off buying a real Christmas
■
tree. In fact; nearly half of : the British population is content to put up with
plastic imitations. '■ 'But with a little bit of patience and a few
simple guidelines, a real tree can give weeks of:
pleasure. There is nothing quite like the scent-and
beauty of a real tree - and nothing else can conjure up the true magic of the festive sea
son. Fora guarantee of quality and value, home
grown British trees are unbeatable. As well as supporting British growers, by buying a home grown tree you are ensured of a fresher, less ■ travel-weary plant that one which has been
shipped in from abroad. , ; Growers across the country expect to have
a bumper harvest this Christmas because of good conditions earlier in the year and could
easily supply the five million trees which are bought in Britain each season.
„
■ Despite this; about 350,000 trees .will be imported this year - which could force home growers to cut their prices to compete with the cheaper ones on offer from abroad.
: , The commonest tree grown in the UK is the ‘ Norway spruce, but there are several different varieties, including the Nordmann fir and the
Scots pine, also on sale. Some people think it is a shame to cut down
a young tree, but in fact the seed used to grow Christmas trees is not suitable for forest growth; And each time a Christmas tree is
harvested, it is replaced by a fresh one. In addition, it is estimated that the 40 mil
lion'Christmas trees growing in the .UK absorb about 50,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide
each year. Christmas trees used to be brought into the
house on Chnstmas Eye, but these days many people install theirs well in advance of the day
itself. This fact, coupled with the drying effects of
modern central heating systems, makes it doubly important that people know how to look after trees in order to enjoy them to the full.
The main rule to consider, when buying a .>
tree is that it should be as fresh as possible,;; which is why it is always better to buy British. Another fact which people tend to forget is
that all trees, even cut ones! need water and ean easily drink more than a pint a day. ■
■ Other tips on how to care for a Christmas treeinclude:
cool place, preferably standing in water, until it is required indoors.
• When first bought; keep it outside in a . ■
: -
• Before bringing the tree inside, cut about half an inch off the butt in order to open up
the pores of the tree. 9 Mount it in a water-holding stand or wedge it in a bucket with pebbles.
.
• Keep it away from direct heat., • If you buy a tree with roots, soak the roots in water before potting the tree in moist
earth. When the celebrations are over and it is time to take down your tree, it is possible for it
to continue .to be useful. • If you would like more information on how
to care for real trees, and where to buy them, contact the British Christmas Tree Growers' Association on 0181946 2695.

i FATHER CHRISTMAS j Father Christmas and Santa I Claus seem one and the same, but I the characters did not really com- j bine until the 1870s.
