They say the best things come in small packages, and you know what? They\u2019re right. So if you\u2019re thinking about sizing down your spruce but need a bit of convincing, let us hit you with the reasons why we\u2019re firmly team tiny tree. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. They\u2019re delivered to your door<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The simpler and less stressful life is, the better. Mini Christmas trees tick every convenience box in the festive book, all while looking super duper cute. Ours are delivered to your doorstep on your day of choice, right up to Christmas Eve, meaning no battle to get an unwieldy mass of spiky branches in the boot of your car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. They\u2019re eco-friendly<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Did you know that you\u2019d need to use an artificial Christmas tree for at least a decade before it rivalled the sustainability of a real one? That\u2019s because most fake trees have a sky-high carbon footprint \u2013 roughly 40kg compared to a real tree\u2019s 4kg<\/a>. They\u2019re usually made of plastic, which requires a lot of energy to make, are often flown in from abroad, and can\u2019t always be recycled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, unless you use your artificial tree for decades, cut real Christmas trees are greener \u2013 and our living mini ones are greener still. If you keep them happy (more on that below), you can plant them in your garden and use them again next year. Top tip: to help it adjust to chillier temperatures, pop it somewhere cool like a garage for a couple of days before moving it outside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. They\u2019re a dream for small spaces<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Not everybody has a grand hallway or huge living room to fill with a 7ft Nordmann Fir, but with a mini Christmas tree, that\u2019s no biggie \u2013 pop yours on a coffee table, bookshelf or desk for an instant pop of festive fun. Even if you do <\/em>have space for a big tree, you might just want one in your bedroom too. When it comes to Christmas decorations, the more the merrier, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. They don\u2019t drop their needles<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cut Christmas trees have a pesky habit of drying out, making them a) a scary fire risk and b) a needle-shedding nightmare. There\u2019s only one thing that belongs under the tree, and that\u2019s a pile of presents. So if you\u2019re sick of sweeping up needles every morning, look to our living mini evergreens that won\u2019t drop theirs all over the floor. Unlike artificial trees, they\u2019ll also still scent your home with that unbeatable alpine fragrance \u2013 ahh, wintry bliss!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. They come with lights and baubles<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Hunting out the perfect spruce is one thing, but then you\u2019ve got to nail the decorations<\/a>.
