Those who want a real Christmas tree are being urged to order them as soon as possible due to shortages.
Experts have warned that families could be forced to pay over the odds for their real trees this year as high temperatures have reduced crop production. This could put further pressure on Brits who are already dealing with the soaring cost of living crisis.
It is believed that record high temperatures both in the UK and Europe paired with lengthy weekly periods without significant rain fall caused difficulties for Christmas tree farmers.
