Went into my local B+Q to purchase a potted Christmas Tree, with the
intention of planting it out in the garden latter. ALL the
trees(varieties) had on the label"Not suitable for replanting
outdoors". Why is this ??

I have heard a tale (urban legend?) that they dip the rootball in boiling
water. That way you have to buy a new tree each year?
