Caring For Your Real Christmas Tree
We want you to enjoy your Lowerfields Christmas tree for as long as possible. Follow our simple tips to keep it looking fresh and ensure a magical Christmas free of tree troubles.
Essentials
- Water your tree regularly.
- Keep your tree away from open flames and heat sources.
- Placing it in a corner helps protect it from knocks and bumps.
- If you plan to add lights, try to place the tree near a socket.
- Cover the floor or table where the tree will sit to prevent water spills.
- Wear garden gloves when handling, as sensitive skin can sometimes react with a mild rash.

Cut Christmas trees naturally shed needles daily, but with these tips, you can keep your tree looking fresh and minimize needle loss.
- Once home, keep your Christmas tree outside in a sheltered spot, ideally standing in water, until you’re ready to bring it indoors.
- Prepare the base by using a handsaw to cut about half an inch to an inch (1.3–2.5 cm) off the bottom, which helps the tree absorb water. (We offer this at the time of purchase)
TOP TIP – Keep your tree outside in water as long as possible before bringing it in to decorate; this will help reduce drooping and needle drop. - Mount your tree as soon as possible after cutting the base.
- Place it in a container of water and top it up regularly. Special tree stands with watering space are available, or you can use a bucket filled with small rocks.
- Ensure your tree is straight; having two people set it up is helpful, with one person holding it steady while the other secures the base. Step back to check that it’s straight before decorating. TOP TIP – If the tree is slightly too large for your space, trim it down to fit perfectly.
Finally, decorate and admire your Lowerfields cut Christmas tree.
And don’t forget to water it frequently!
