Christmas Tree Guide

Christmas 2026: we are not selling Christmas trees this year. Read on for Spruce and Fir advice.

We're not selling Christmas trees in 2026

Earlier this year we closed our customer-facing site and moved to a delivery-only timber service, so we are not selling Christmas trees or decorations this Christmas. Thank you to everyone who has bought a tree from us over the years.

Weston Sawmill is still open for business, delivering timber, fencing, decking, gates and logs across Shropshire, Staffordshire and Wolverhampton.

Spruce or Fir: Which Christmas Tree Is Right for You?

The two most popular real Christmas trees in the UK are Spruce and Fir, and each suits a different kind of home.

Fir trees

Fir trees, such as the Nordmann Fir, have soft needles and hold them well indoors. They shed once a year and are a good choice for large displays and for homes with young children.

Spruce trees

Spruce trees, such as the Norway Spruce, have the traditional Christmas tree scent. Potted Spruce shed every three to four years, so a potted tree can be used indoors one Christmas and planted outdoors the next.
