Best place to buy Xmas tree in East Dulwich?

Anyone have a recommendation on where to get a Christmas tree nearby?


Apart from not wanting to be fleeced, I worry when it's out the back of a pub car park or similar that the trees 'fell out the back of a van', if you catch my drift.


All advice very welcome! Cheers, Sally

we normally go to the place on South Circular by junction with Lordship Lane, just opposite old Harvester. Very good selection at varying prices.


There is also a regular stand in the pub car park (sorry) of the Plough on Lordship lane, opposite Library. However, this seems pukka and I think sponsors\contributes to St Christopher's Hospice.


But why are you asking about Christmas trees, surely Christmas is weeks away ? ;-)

I have got mine for the last 20 years or so from the flower and plant shop at the south end of Lordship Lane (just before it turns into London Road) next to Barcelona restaurant (Melford Road corner). Respectably sourced, fairly priced (but not give-away cheap) and keeps its needles throughout Christmas. Generally a nice shop anyway, from whom I buy bedding etc. plants through the year.

    • Most churches rent out halls for children's' parties but rarely adult parties, Christ Church only does afternoon parties,   The East Dulwich Community centre hires out halls to 9 pm only and all music needs to be on a sound restrictor as is in a residential area. St Johns with St Clements have a small hall but not sure if they allow adult parties. Nunhead Green has a newish community centre with a couple of different size halls. Most places seem to charge around £40 ph  with a deposit of £100/200 (returned if no damage or excess cleaning needed.
    • Hello, Recently there have been various comments made on the forum which have resulted in heated discussions being had. I for one, hold up my hand and wanted to personally thank whoever is keeping the forum going.. remember when it was likely to close. We are all adults and should known when it is right to continue or just ignore or if really feel it necessary comment via pm. I have had a long relationship with the forum and have bought, sold, offered advice and in deed made friends on the forum over the years. It is a public forum after all and everyone is entitled to express their opinion and is also free. I am not as tech minded as most but with the season of good will approaching and-knowing in this economic climate how many people are  struggling, I  thought it would be a lovely idea, to perhaps set up a just giving page to raise funds for a local charity who might appreciate a contribution towards their Christmas festivities… On a practical side, might just be to complicated to administer as I am sure all have charities that we support so my other thought was not me, as I am useless but to set up a just giving page and whatever monies are raised, perhaps contribute to the festivities that use to be run by local shops or whatever.. Maybe even use a local church hall and just make it special for perhaps folk that find it difficult to access events or no access for say wheel chair users.. guess really, one is looking for guidance from the church and of course volunteers. Shoot me down if you must or feel the need but this is my view and no, sadly I won’t be around in the months before Christmas but can help remotely.
