Blue Spruce Potted Christmas Tree

Transform your home this Christmas with our stunning Super Blue Spruce Christmas tree, a truly exceptional choice that stands apart from traditional green varieties. This premium potted tree showcases nature's most magnificent blue-toned evergreen. The coveted 'Super Blue' variety guarantees vibrant, steely-blue needle colour throughout the festive season.

 

What Makes Our Super Blue Spruce Special

Exceptional Colouring

Our trees are exclusively the 'Super Blue' variety of blue spruce (Picea pungens 'Super Blue'), renowned for producing the most striking steely-blue needle colour available. Unlike ordinary blue spruces that are closer to green than blue, the Super Blue variety maintains its brilliant blue-silver hue throughout the Christmas period, creating a truly magical centrepiece for your home.

Superior Growing Method

Each tree is carefully cultivated in a pot from seedling stage, ensuring a robust root system that keeps your tree fresh and healthy for weeks. This method means your tree continues to thrive indoors, maintaining its needle retention and vibrant appearance far longer than cut trees.

  • Tree Shape: Classic pyramid Christmas tree silhouette with well-balanced branching

Practical Benefits

Care Instructions

Indoor Display

  1. Position away from direct heat sources (radiators, fireplaces, heaters)

  2. Place in a cool area of the room when possible

  3. Water regularly to keep soil moist but not waterlogged

  4. Check soil moisture daily by inserting finger into compost

  5. Consider using a plant saucer to protect flooring

 

Watering Guide

  • Check daily: soil should feel slightly damp to touch

  • Water when top inch of soil feels dry

  • Pour water slowly around the base until it begins to drain

  • Avoid letting the tree sit in standing water

 

After Christmas Options

Garden Planting

Your Super Blue Spruce can be planted in your garden after the festive season, where it will grow into a magnificent specimen tree. Choose a sunny to partially shaded spot with well-draining soil, and enjoy its beautiful blue colour year-round.

 

Continued Container Growing

Alternatively, repot into a larger container for patio or balcony display, where it will continue to thrive and can be brought indoors again next Christmas.

 

Why Choose Blue Spruce Over Traditional Green Trees?

  • Unique Aesthetic: Stand out with a tree that's genuinely different and eye-catching

  • Photogenic Quality: The steely-blue colour creates stunning photographs and social media posts

  • Conversation Starter: Guests will be amazed by the unusual and beautiful colouring

  • Longevity: The 'Super Blue' variety maintains its colour intensity throughout the season

  • Versatile Decoration: Complements both traditional red and gold, and contemporary silver and white decoration schemes

 

Delivery and Handling

Your Super Blue Spruce arrives carefully packaged to protect the branches and root system during transit. Each tree is individually wrapped and secured to prevent damage. Upon arrival, simply unwrap, position in your chosen location, and enjoy your stunning blue Christmas centrepiece.

 

Investment in Quality

Whilst premium varieties like our Super Blue Spruce represent a higher initial investment than standard green trees, the exceptional beauty, extended freshness, and potential for post-Christmas garden planting make it excellent value for discerning customers who appreciate quality and uniqueness.

Fresh Cut Christmas TreeCut Christmas Trees
 
Cut trees are still the most popular choice of real tree as they usually offer the most cost effective solution and are the easiest option for handling. For maximum freshness choose a rootballed tree and have the rootball cut off on the day of dispatch.
 
Immediately upon receipt of your tree, remove the packaging. Cut about 25mm off the base of the tree and stand it upright in a bucket of water in a cool building (garden shed or garage). Aim to keep the tree in a cool building for as long as possible, taking it inside just before Christmas. Make sure the water in the bucket is kept topped up and spray the foliage with water daily if possible. Choose the coolest room in the house (hallway etc), away from open fires and direct sources of heat (radiators etc). Before taking the tree inside, check it fits properly in your stand or you have trimmed enough branches back if keeping it in a bucket. Put the stand (or bucket) in the chosen place in the house, no closer than 60cm to a wall to allow the tree to stand up. Put the tree in the stand and systematically clamp the tree into the stand, ensuring it is upright. If using a bucket, bricks wedged between the bucket and the trunk work well and offer good counter balance. Keep the tree watered in the stand and ideally spray the needles carefully with water everyday (taking care to avoid the lights!)
 
Take the tree out of the house as soon as possible after Christmas. There will inevitably be some needle loss in the process but nothing 5 minutes with a vacuum cleaner can’t fix. Take the tree to your nearest recycling centre because once chipped and composted, your tree can be recycled as mulch top dressing.
 
 
Real Potted Christmas TreePotted Christmas Trees
 
If you want a tree that you can plant after Christmas then smaller potted Christmas trees have the best chance of survival because proportionally, they’ve lost less of their roots to enable them to be taken in to the house, but please remember, they are outdoor trees and taking them inside means we can’t guarantee their survival.
 
Immediately upon receiving your tree, remove the packaging. Store the tree upright in a cool building (garden shed or garage) and keep it well watered. Aim to keep the tree in a cool building for as long as possible, taking it inside just before Christmas and ideally putting it in the coolest room away from open fires and radiators. Water the tree daily and if possible, spray the foliage with water (taking care to turn off and avoid the lights!).
 
As soon as possible, after Christmas, take the tree outside. Dig a hole about 50mm deeper than the top of the pot and sprinkle a handful of bonemeal in the hole and on the soil to be back-filled. Carefully place the pot in the hole and pull the tree out of the pot. The soil may fall away but try and make sure that the soil and the roots stay in contact in the hole. Back-fill the hole, firming down each layer with your heel. Make sure the tree is upright and stake at 45 degree angle if necessary. Water roots and foliage copiously in dry periods. Don’t worry if some of the needles fall off initially – it may be transplant shock and they will come back if the tree survives.
 
We can’t guarantee your tree will live if you've kept it indoors throughout Christmas, however, potted trees often do well and if you follow these directions, you will have given it the best chance of survival.
