When is the best time to buy a real Christmas tree?

According to the experts at Flowercard, if you are planning to have your tree up until twelfth night, then you should buy a tree on the 2nd December. You can buy and put it up later, but with little cheer around at the moment why not get it up sooner rather than later.
