Hi There Prezzybox Fans!
Christmas is quickly approaching!, in fact there are only 6 more shopping weeks to go before the big day!
It’s a good thing there are so many brilliant Christmas Presents at Prezzybox! One of the newest and most interesting Christmas ideas is the Treemendous Card.

These fantastic little cards don’t just carry your messages of Christmas joy, they also come with a live sapling!
Inside the card is a Norway Spruce, Picea abies. The Norway Spruce is best known in Britain as the Christmas tree and can grow in excess of 36m! Wood from the Norway Spruce is known as deal and has many uses including roofing, house interiors and paper pulp. The leaves are needle-like, hard and prickly. The new spring growth produces foliage of a much brighter green. The cones ripen in autumn and are decorative.
Treemendous cards’ trees are grown from seed taken from sustainable sources with Forestry Commission approval. They are all grown in the UK to help avoid unnecessary shipping and indeed further environmental damage, the current crop is being grown in Scotland in preparation for the 2009 Christmas season. All of the card packaging is fully recycled and the inks used are vegetable based.
If we all sent a tree, the World would be a better place. By sending a Treemendous Card you could -
* Help the fight against global warming
* Provide natural habitat for wildlife
* Enrich our own lives as well as those of our children
Once you have received your tree, it should be removed from the card, taken from its drawstring cotton pouch and the root wrapping removed. Moisten the root ball well and re-pot it in a small container about 15cm diameter with good compost, ensuring the roots are at least 1.5 cm below the surface and the soil is well compacted. The tree should be protected from frost initially, but if afterwards you decide to let your tree fully mature, it can be planted outside either in a large pot as a deck plant or in the ground to enable full maturity.

These little cards are available in 7 adorable Christmas designs and are the perfect eco friendly Christmas gift. They’re also fantastic Secret Santa ideas coming in at under £10!
The Treemendous cards are available in a range of designs now from Prezzybox for just £7.95.
Bee Festive!
