Living Christmas Tree Rental
Rent a Pot-Grown Christmas Tree. We Deliver, You Enjoy It, We Take It Back.
A pot grown Christmas tree keeps its roots throughout the season. We deliver it to your door, you decorate it, and in January we collect it. Depending on its condition, it gets replanted, kept in its pot for the following year or composted. No mess. No trip to the tip.

The Pot-Grown Difference
What Is a Pot-Grown Christmas Tree?
A pot grown Christmas tree is grown in a container from the start. It keeps its full root system in the pot throughout its life. That means it can go back into the ground after Christmas, or stay in its pot and come back the following year.
A freshly cut Christmas tree has no roots. It cannot be replanted. A living tree in a pot can.
We supply Nordmann Fir and Norway Spruce in pot grown form. Both hold their needles well indoors. The Nordmann Fir is the non-drop variety. The Norway Spruce has a stronger scent and a more traditional shape.
We offer sizes from 3ft to 6ft. Suitable for living rooms, hallways and smaller offices.
Want to keep the tree? Buy a potted Christmas tree outright and it stays with you year after year.

Common Question
Can You Replant a Christmas Tree After Christmas?
Yes, if it is pot grown.
The tree spends the festive season in its container. The root ball stays intact. As long as you keep it cool, water it well and keep it indoors for no more than two to three weeks, it has a good chance of surviving.
After we collect it, we assess each tree. Trees in strong health get replanted in the ground. Trees that came through the season well but are not ready for the ground stay in their pots for the following year. Trees that did not survive get chipped and composted. Nothing goes to landfill.
Renting a pot grown Christmas tree lets you enjoy a real tree every year without the hassle. If you want the same tree back every year, buying a potted Christmas tree outright is the better option.

How It Works
Simple from Start to Finish
01
Order Your Tree
Choose your size online. We offer Nordmann Fir and Norway Spruce from 3ft to 6ft. Pick your delivery date at checkout.
02
We Deliver to Your Door
Your tree arrives in its pot, healthy and ready to decorate. Keep it in a cool spot away from direct heat. Water the root ball with about 500ml every two days. Keep it indoors for no more than two to three weeks.
03
We Collect in January
After Christmas, leave the tree outside on your agreed collection date. We assess its condition and either replant it, keep it in its pot for the following year or compost it. You do nothing.
Want to skip the rental and keep the tree? Buy one outright and it stays with you. It is the cheaper option over two or more years.
Why Real Trees Win
The Carbon Footprint of a Christmas Tree
A real Christmas tree has a far lower carbon footprint than an artificial one.
A 6ft fresh-cut tree, recycled after the season, produces about 3.5kg of CO2e. A 6ft artificial tree produces 40kg of CO2e. It needs to be used for at least ten years to match the carbon footprint of one real christmas tree. Most artificial christmas trees do not last that long, and most end up in landfill.
A pot grown tree that gets replanted or kept in its pot produces the least waste of any option. Every tree we grow spends nine years absorbing carbon from the atmosphere. When we harvest one, we plant another. Choosing a real tree and recycling or replanting it is the right choice for the environment.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you replant christmas trees after Christmas?
Pot grown trees can go back into the ground after the season. They keep their root system in the pot throughout. After collection, we assess each tree and either replant it, keep it in its pot for the following year or compost it. Cut christmas trees have no roots and cannot be replanted.
Can I keep the tree rather than return it?
Yes. If you want to keep your pot grown tree, buy one outright rather than renting. It is the cheaper option over two or more years and the tree stays with you. Water it through the year, keep it outdoors between seasons and it should come back every Christmas.
How long can the tree stay indoors?
No more than two to three weeks. Keep it away from radiators and direct sunlight. Water the root ball with about 500ml every two days. The cooler the room, the better the tree's chance of surviving to be replanted.
What areas do you deliver to?
Living christmas tree rental is available across London and the Home Counties. For larger commercial installations we work anywhere in the UK. Call us on 0203 519 9997 if you are unsure whether we cover your area.
What happens if the tree does not survive?
Trees that do not make it through the season get chipped and composted. Nothing goes to landfill. We aim to replant or re-pot every tree we collect, but survival depends on how it was kept indoors.
Is a pot grown rental tree better for the environment than a cut tree?
Both are far better than an artificial tree. A pot grown tree that gets replanted has the lowest carbon footprint of any option. A fresh-cut tree that is recycled, not sent to landfill, is also an excellent choice.
