Secondly, tree stands hold water, something that is vital for happy and healthy Christmas trees. Without being able to soak up moisture, the Christmas tree would be a rather sorry sight come December 25th! A tree stand allows the Christmas tree to absorb water freely to minimise needle drop and help it stay fresh enough to last the full festive season.

Christmas tree stands are an incredibly important part of Christmas. They’re the sturdy base upon which your magnificent Christmas tree can thrive. Make sure that you choose one of our premium real Christmas tree stands for a safe and secure festive season.A freshly cut Christmas tree doesn't have any roots and drinks water up from the bottom. This means it is impossible to over-water your Christmas tree. You might be surprised to learn that even smaller trees can drink up to 2 pints of water per day, with larger trees soaking up even more. In fact, when a tree is first cut, over half its weight is water. The Cinco Classic comes in 2 sizes for Christmas trees up to 7 feet and up to 10 feet tall. It is made from robust plastic with steel bolts to secure the tree tightly in place. This stand features a wide opening reservoir to make it easy to replenish water without getting scratched by needles. A spill guard prevents water from ruining carpets and flooring. Cinco express You may think of tree stands as large ugly contraptions that ruin the appearance of an otherwise perfect Christmas tree from childhood. These days, they usually combine style and practicality. While they're still unlikely to win any awards for outstanding beauty, they don't detract from the tree's appearance. If you prefer to keep the tree stand out of sight, they are easy to conceal with Christmas décor. Why do I need a Christmas tree stand? Give the tree a good shake before taking it inside. Doing this will get rid of any loose needles (much better to have to sweep them up from the garden than from the sitting room carpet!). It's perfectly normal for some needles to drop, particularly from the inner section of the Christmas tree.
