Christmas tree trend: More and more people are already decorating in Advent!

This Advent "Advent trees" enjoy growing popularity. More and more people are building their Christmas trees at the beginning of the Advent season, as the chairman of the Lower Austrian Christmas Bauern, Josef Reithner, reports. "Already on the first weekend in Advent we had many customers who already wanted to bring a tree home," explains Reithner. This shows a clear trend: the demand for Christmas feeling is always sought earlier in the season. This new custom not only brings a festive mood, but also ensures timely decoration from Christmas in your own four walls.

This year around 1.1 million Christmas trees were cut in Austria, with Lower Austria and Vienna considered the main sales areas. The Nordmann fir is particularly in demand for buyers because it not only smells well, but also loses little needles. The buyers favor trees between 1.50 and 2.20 meters, whereby Reithner also points out that visually flawless trees are preferred. Favorable firs with small optical defects had fewer buyers this year, which shows an interesting shift in the purchase habits, as well as wien.orf.at reported.

The joy of an early tree could raise the mood in many households, especially for those who have difficulty getting into a Christmas mood. While the Advent calendar opens, the Advent tree already ensures a festive atmosphere that many find so beneficial. This trend could also attract customers in the coming years, since the Christmas tree is increasingly being considered an important part of the Advent season, Reithnerer continues, and it remains to be seen whether this new custom will continue to be established in the future, as Exxpress.at reported.
