Default Talking of Xmas trees

As a follow up to the thread on living trees of a few weeks ago, I
bought 2 from Tesco today, artound 18 inches tall in pots with lights,
they had been selling for £10 but were down to £2.50 including the
little battery lights even had 2 batteries with them.
They wanted a good soak but now look good and with luck will grow on
from year to year.
What the hell £5.00 for 2 sets of lights with free tree..who cares.

The problem is they grow very fast epecially after a couple of years.
Big trees grow two of three feet a year.
