Each tree has been grown in the UK and are sourced from a sustainable plantation in Scotland, where 2.5 trees are planted for every one that is cut down. 

The Nordmann fir is one of the most popular Christmas tree varieties, due to how well it holds its needles indoors.

Given that similar trees will be upwards of £50 in many shops, stocks in Aldi, Lidl and Home Bargains are expected to go fast - so wherever you choose, be quick.
