This Needlefresh Norway Spruce (Picea Abies) is a beautiful Pot Grown Christmas Tree. If you’re a stickler for tradition, the Norway Spruce is for you. Considered the oldest traditional Christmas tree, it is bushy and well shaped with short, light green needles. This is all combined with a wonderfully fragrant pine scent.
These trees look spectacular when decorated with lights, tinsel and baubles. However, please be aware that Norway Spruce trees do have small prickly needles and therefore are not recommended for houses with small children and pets.
As this tree is planted in a pot, it can be kept indoors for decorating at Christmas and then planted outdoors in the garden to grow for years to come.
Keep your real tree outside for as long as possible as they will thrive better in the cold. Position trees well away from heat sources in the home. To replant trees outdoors after use in the home, ensure tree is watered regularly when indoors and allow it to harden off before planting. Pots may have holes in the bottom, remember to place on a dish or tray.
For many years the Norway Spruce was the most popular Christmas tree variety in the UK due to the fact it grew locally and naturally produced the classic Christmas tree shape. Still grown throughout Northern Europe, it is a fast-growing species and tolerates most soils but does require good drainage.
Every Christmas, Oslo, the capital of Norway, provides the Trafalgar Square Christmas tree in London with the country’s name-sake spruce.
