in The potting shed
Has anybody read the book The Last Christmas Tree by Stephen Krensky? Well, I played the part of Santa on Christmas Eve and I now have a lop-sided but otherwise healthy Noble Fir sitting in a pot in the morning room, looking for a home. Too big to tuck into a corner of the garden. Too "foreign" to be acceptable to Peak Park's eco system. Do I plant it in a big, fancy pot that will cost more than the tree did and keep it going until next Christmas? Or what? Answers on a postcard please. image

    I'd try it in a pot but not a fancy one image

    Oh dear, I have the same kind of problem, sitting in a pot outside my kitchen door. I was kind of hoping I could just leave it there all year and no-one would notice... lights and everything image

    Why not? It could look very attractive. And save time come next Christmas image

    At least the solar lights might work in the summer!
