Christmas Trees in Shropshire"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s not too long until Christmas is upon us and our trees have been coming along nicely.<\/p>\n<p>We have both potted and free standing Spruce and Nordmann Christmas trees available in a huge variety of styles. Nothing gets your home feeling more festive than a beautiful real tree and we have trees to suit all budgets. We grow all of our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westonsawmillandnursery.co.uk\/christmas-trees\">Christmas trees in Shropshire<\/a> throughout the year so they are in peak condition come December and ready to take home.<\/p>\n<p>Weston Sawmill accept orders all year round for our trees and you are more than welcome to come and see them for yourself. In this blog, we are going to have a look at the key differences between our two most popular seasonal trees.<\/p>\n<h2>What are the differences between these Christmas trees?<\/h2>\n<p>The classic spruce tree is what you will find in most homes in the UK and truly is a festive classic. Spruce christmas trees smell incredible and look fantastic in the home. The spruce has a vivid green colour about it with rectangular needles and is perfect for hanging your baubles and tinsel on. However, spruce Christmas trees do tend to lose their needles quicker than the Nordman so are best off being purchased closer to Christmas day. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westonsawmillandnursery.co.uk\/christmas-trees\/nordmann-fir-christmas-tree\">The Nordman<\/a> on the other hand has incredible needle retention so will require the minimum amount of cleaning. It also has a more cone-like shape compared to the spruce but has a glossier appearance.<\/p>\n<h3>Choose Weston Sawmill This Christmas<\/h3>\n<p>We sell both the spruce and nordman free-standing or in potted versions with each one available in roughly three different sizes. Weston Sawmill give our Christmas trees the best possible treatment all year round so they are perfect at the most wonderful time of the year. We hope you can come and visit us to see our festive trees for yourself but if not, please don\u2019t hesitate to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westonsawmillandnursery.co.uk\/info\/contact\">get in touch with us<\/a> at any time for more information.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s not too long until Christmas is upon us and our trees have been coming along nicely.
