• p'raps not the ideal place to ask, but I have just brought my @ 4 year old potted Christmas tree inside at the behest of the @ 4 year old child and I'm a bit worried about it surviving. It is as far away from a radiator as I can get it but the room is fairly warm most the time - water a bit every day? Feed it? Put it back outside ASAP too I guess?

  • trees are pretty intolerant of being moved into houses, which is one reason why potted christmas trees rarely last more than a couple of seasons.

    i don't think feeding it now will be a good idea, do that in spring / summer if it survives that long.

    keep the soil moist but not wet.

  • Thanks, it has been outside consistently for the last 3.5 years, it looks ok and was repotted at the start of Autumn. I’ll try and keep an eye on it.
