Guide: Christmas Trees

What better way to get in the holiday spirit than decking your halls with a Christmas tree?
22 November 2021

Whether you prefer to fake it, or enjoy the scent of fresh pine, Christmas trees are one of the best parts of getting into the holiday spirit. But do you know where to find them? We’ve searched far and wide to find the best spots in the city where you can buy the perfect Christmas Tree. 

Rent

Love the idea of a real tree in the house for Christmas, but don’t want the hassle of getting it home – and then finding somewhere to dump it when the festive season is done? We have an easy solution for you! Head to Steinsel, choose your tree, it will be delivered and then collected again after Christmas. If you loved it, you can even reserve the same tree for the following year. Talk about the best of both worlds, this method is sustainable and easy!

The Real Deal

Whether you love the smell of fresh pine, the tradition behind picking the perfect tree, or even supporting your local Christmas tree farm, getting a real Christmas tree is quite the festive journey. If you want a potted tree that will live on after the holiday season, we suggest going to a local plant shop or renting through the option mentioned above. We recommend getting your tree in mid-December as real Christmas trees tend to last 4 to 5 weeks.
