christmas tree - Page 4

Oh Busy Lizzie, you seem to have an amazing garden in a wonderful part of the world.

Do you have visitors marvelling about what an English garden looks like?

Hi, I managed to find a christmas tree, about 3ft tall, potted, was on at £30 before Christmas but after they put ot out the back of the shop to dump it, I asked if they had any left over and got it for £5. RESULT.. Now I have to plant it.. 

You could continue to keep it in a pot (trees growing in pots are illustrated in several photos on this thread). That would make re-entry into the house a lot simpler when the time comes.

Or you might simply want an evergreen tree for the garden.

Here is a picture of my husbands Christmas tree that was planted in 1984. It was bought in a pot and used indoors for Christmas then planted outside. This is where he used to live (before he met and married me),  we went to Ironbridge for a holiday and took a trip to see his old house. He couldn't believe it when he saw how big the tree had grown and so surprised to see that it is still there.
