One of the pieces of advice is to let the tree get used to the temperature when it goes indoors. A day in a cool room such as a shed or storage room before moving the tree to the warm living room is highly recommended.
It is also important not to place the tree within two meters of a heater and the tree should not be exposed to direct sunlight.
Another tip is to mix the water from the Christmas tree with granulated sugar. These sugars nourish the tree and ensure that it stays green longer.
The tips emerged from her husband’s thirty years of experience in the field of Christmas tree sales. However, Christina has her doubts about the last tip: “Sugar and water? Yes, my husband came up with that. That doesn’t work with a Christmas tree, does it?”, Christina laughs out loud. “Well, he’ll know about it.”
