A firm of florists in Christchurch specialises at Christmas-time in selling or hiring Christmas-trees grown in tubs. The ideal trees for the purpose are members of the Norway spruce family, and the picea family, which are branchy and strong enough to support a considerable weight tied to the branches. Private houses bring the biggest bemand, the trees being used for parties, and shops take quite a number of the trees for decorative and Father Christmas ’ purposes. Hired trees are returned after the festivities and replanted in the firm’s nursery.
