GardenCentreOnline.co.uk Discusses Christmas Trees And The Benefits Of Using An Artificial Tree

Online, October 24, 2012 (Newswire.com) - Online garden and home accessory retailer, GardenCentreOnline.co.uk, discusses Christmas trees and the different benefits associated with real and artificial trees.

Many people think that it is too early to begin discussing Christmas however retailers are already setting up their Christmas isles and stock in order to begin offering it to their customers well before the Christmas period.

The staple Christmas item that many people will be purchasing this year is a Christmas tree. More than 30 million Christmas trees, both real and artificial are sold each year, according to a report from the American Christmas Tree Association.

GardenCentreOnline.co.uk provides artificial Christmas trees to their customers. A Customer Service Spokeswoman added, "Artificial Christmas trees are the trees that most families prefer to have in their home. These trees are easier to maintain throughout the Christmas period, and then they can simply be packed away into their box, ready for the next year."

There are several benefits to having an artificial Christmas tree over a real one.

• Artificial Christmas trees don't need to be watered every day and won't wilt and die if someone forgets to do so.
• Artificial trees will hold all of their fake pine needles, meaning that there is minimum mess that needs to be cleared up when the time comes to put the tree away.
• Artificial trees won't cause an allergic reaction for anyone.
• Artificial trees won't rot like real trees do, and won't cause a bad smell if neglected over Christmas.

Some people maintain that there is no replacement for a real Christmas tree, and will continue to go out and buy a real one from a market or shop close to them. A sensible option, for those that like to use a real Christmas tree, is to plant two in the garden. Every year people can dig one of the trees up and bring it into the house for Christmas, planting it back in the ground in January. The logic behind having two of these is to alternate which tree is used every year, giving the last one a chance to recover.

GardenCentreOnline.co.uk is an online retailer of garden and home products. They have a huge range of products in which anyone can find what they're looking for. The company highly recommend artificial Christmas trees over real ones in order to help families maintain the mess that comes with Christmas better.
