So your Christmas tree becomes sustainable joy in the garden!

Berlin, Deutschland - It is the time of the festive lights and the bright firs! But what happens to the beaten Christmas tree after the holidays? January 6th is traditionally the deadline on which many households dispose of their tree. The Berlin Consumer Center has put together helpful tips for environmentally friendly disposal. Trees can be brought to the recycling yard, placed in the bio bin or placed in front of the door on certain days. It is important that all jewelry is removed beforehand to ensure reusability, such as Volksblatt reported.

But there are also more sustainable ways to enjoy the Christmas tree! The Christmas tree in the pot is a popular option. This tree not only remains fresh during the holidays, but can theoretically continue to grow in the garden for many years. The right care is important here, because these trees need regular watering and fertilizing to stay healthy and not to suffer any needle loss, such as Gartenjournal reports.

A Christmas tree from the pot is not only more environmentally friendly, but can also be used several times with careful treatment. However, one should note that the tree should not be in the warm living room for more than ten days to avoid harmful temperature fluctuations and stress. The decision for a pot tree could therefore change both the posture and the handling of nature sustainably if you take care of the plant sufficiently.
