    After successfully keeping a 'potted', not 'pot grown' Nordman Fir alive last year I have managed to keep another Nordman and a Frasier Fir alive this time, both now potted up in large pots, they both had lots of new root growth and are looking good. Happy days :)

      Excellent! :dbgrtmb: They both look really healthy, happy plants.

      And, thank you: that is a great time reminder that I must do the same with mine :thumbsup:

        Brilliant but don't be tempted to put them in the ground; they'll grow to 30ft in no time!
