Fortunately, we have a huge range of beautiful real trees to choose from including the always popular spruce and fir varieties. Over the past few years Weston Sawmill have become the number one place for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westonsawmillandnursery.co.uk\/christmas-trees-shropshire\">Christmas trees in Shropshire<\/a> and Staffordshire with hundreds being sold every year. And, from the 24th November our full range will be available in our yard but the big question is, how do you choose your Christmas tree?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.westonsawmillandnursery.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/shutterstock_63295042.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-288 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.westonsawmillandnursery.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/shutterstock_63295042.jpg\" alt=\"Christmas Trees Shropshire\" width=\"453\" height=\"453\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.westonsawmillandnursery.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/shutterstock_63295042.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.westonsawmillandnursery.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/shutterstock_63295042-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.westonsawmillandnursery.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/shutterstock_63295042-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.westonsawmillandnursery.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/shutterstock_63295042-624x624.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 453px) 100vw, 453px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Number One For Christmas Trees in Shropshire<\/h2>\n<p>The first and most obvious thing to consider is how much space you have in the home. There\u2019s nothing worse than picking out a beautiful tree only for it to be too big for it\u2019s intended room so make sure you measure up first. After that, you\u2019ll want to consider what type of tree you want. With the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westonsawmillandnursery.co.uk\/christmas-trees\/nordmann-fir-christmas-tree\">Nordmann Fir<\/a> the needles are big and soft making it a great choice if you have young children in the house. However, the Spruce remains our most popular choice largely due to the incredible Christmas scent that it brings into your home although it doesn&#8217;t retain its needles quite so well. And, prices for the Spruce start from as little as \u00a315 so it\u2019s a great choice if you\u2019re on a tight budget.<\/p>\n<h3>Order Your Christmas Tree Today!<\/h3>\n<p>Even though our full range isn\u2019t out yet, we can still get you one sorted if you\u2019re in a hurry so don\u2019t hesitate to come and visit us.
