Choosing a real tree this festive season is central to celebrating this Christmas in a traditional manner that goes back hundreds of years.
The tree is the focal part of our celebrations and as such it is important to care for it in order to ensure that it keeps on giving over the Christmas and in to the new year.

Christmas Tree Care Guidelines
When you purchase your tree from www.buyirishchristmastrees.com they will cut an inch from the bottom of the stem and this will allow the tree to absorb water when erected.
Shake off any loose needles before you bring the tree indoor.
Once inside, stand the tree in their special Christmas tree stand.
Add a pint of water to the bowl and keep topping up over the Christmas, ensuring the base of the tree is always submerged in water. This will keep your tree fresh over the holiday period.
Christmas Tree Safety
Place the tree in the coolest part of the room making sure it is properly secured and away from doorways, stairs, heaters, radiators and open fires.
Make sure that lights on the Christmas tree or lights used for decorations elsewhere are properly wired and comply with European Union standards of safety.
Always unplug Christmas tree lights and decorations before leaving the house.
