Saw this in Southwark Life - rent a tree and then it is collected and aken away to carry on growing after Christmas.

They are, however, already out of stock. But you can join waiting list, or mailing list for 2021 advance notice.

Yes, replantable trees, either to buy or hire seem to make great sense in all manner of ways. If you were in raptures when you heard nature and were able to enjoy it more in the spring during the first wave and the lockdown then think of reducing your consumption over Xmas - it's not that hard. Just because it has been tough it doesn't mean we should splash out and waste food and buy stuff we don't need.

Should note if you're going for the real tree in pot option, its super important to keep a vigilant eye on the soil and not letting it dry out. Other than that there very easy to look after and to plant out in the garden after :)

This is a brilliant idea!

    • As I had a moan on here about the truly abysmal Christmas meal we had at The Cherry Tree last year, I am redressing the balance by saying we had a really excellent Christmas meal at Franklins last night. Every course was absolutely delicious and  really well cooked. The staff were lovely despite being exhausted and run off their feet. In particular, my sea bass was a large portion and cooked to perfection, in stark contrast to the small dried up portion The Cherry Tree provided, from which I was barely able to scrape a teaspoonful of flesh (that is not an exaggeration). And our Franklins meal cost less than half what we paid at The Cherry Tree (to be fair, that was on Christmas Day so the Cherry Tree costs would have been higher, but that doesn't excuse the appalling quality meal). Thank you again to Franklins for restoring our faith in eating out at Christmas! 
    • That is almost too ridiculous to answer but I'll take the bait. You are comparing a national charity with one branch of a small charity. Cats Protection has around 34 dedicated rehoming centres. CHAT has two, Lewisham & Canning Town and a sanctuary in Sussex. So if Cats Protection have homed 34,000 cats, thats an average of 1000 per branch. From memory this years total so far for Lewisham CHAT was over 980. I saw a few homed this weekend so we may well reach 1000 for this year. The same as Cats Protection. No need for head scratching.    
    • Actually, if it was factory fitted then it's location would be documented. It's the fact that it can be fitted in different places which means that it's difficult for thieves to locate.
