Is there anyone out there who could tell me if I can buy a real christmas tree that has got roots on that I can buy with a view to growing it on after christmas, the one I have got has outgrown the lounge that we usually stand it in I live in the Portsmouth area

Yes, they should be widely available. Our local independent garden centre has lots.

1) Yes there is. Me. You can buy rooted trees.
2) Local suppliers may be few and far between so try a web search on
"potted Christmas trees" or "rooted Christmas trees" for mail order
suppliers.
3) When posting messages, please use a subject title that means
something, not your "ID". Then those who know will react to the
question. "Billit" means absolutely nothing and so will be ignored by
many here.

He's been told that numerous times. He's either a troll or moron.

Or maybe just a confused old duffer. We're all headed that way, a
little understanding wouldn't go amiss.

Thank you for letting me know the low regard with which you view my posts. I'll try to remember not to respond to you in the future.

Billit, when you start a question on gb, you have two boxes, one saying "title", one saying "message". If you could type something different into "title", eg "Christmas trees with roots", rather than "billit", there would be two good results:

1) people who don't read everything but only those questions they are interested in would be more likely to read your post and give you and answer

2) if you ask more than one question, you'd be less likely to have all the answers mixed up together.

Hi,

I know it may be a bit late, but I just looked at my
Dodies Christmas Gifts catalogue, and they are selling
table top trees, in 3 litre pots that can be
transplated out into the garden. They say they are
dwart trees and will reach a height of 2m in 10 years.
"Picea albertino conico" is the variety, and at £16.99
they do not seem too expensive when compared to
artificial trees. Delivery is from 10th December.
