They have arrived!!!
This year we are again stocking top quality Nordmann Firs grown by Woodman Trees, just north of Winchester.
Prices have increased £5 on last year because we are now registered for VAT, which means 20% of the price you pay goes to the inland revenue, and we can’t afford to keep last year’s prices.
4ft – £30
5ft – £40
6ft – £50
7ft – £60
We are open:
2pm to 6pm Tuesday
10am to 6pm Wednesday
10am to 6pm Thursday
9am to 5pm Saturdays
Choose your tree and then we will wrap it for you in our special machine:
And how about this – when you’ve finished with your tree you can bring it back to us and we will shred it and use it as mulch for our paths!!
These are Nordmann Firs – they draw in water and retain their needles for a longer period compared to the traditional Norway Spruce and other types of Fir.
We had a very interesting time learning about how they are grown when we went to meet the team at Woodmancott. It is a stunning location on the downs north of Winchester.
There are half a million trees there.
The trees are planted out when they are 3 years old and grow on for another 6 years before being harvested.
There is so much care each year to ensure they form a traditional shape.
Care of your Tree
Cut trees are no different to cut flowers and they will dry out if they cannot draw up moisture. For best results, cut half an inch off the stem and use a water-filled tree stand.
