    Buy a potted one, leave it in the garden until Christmas Eve and so long as it's not near a radiator or in too much heat it should be ok till after the New Year.

    You can put it outside again then for next year. I still have mine from from 2012, bought it from Lidl image.

  • keep watered and mist.is what I do.

    If all else fails, the falledn needles can usefully be put under strawberries to deter slugs etc!

    Half jokingly - I can 'do' bags of larch needles if anyone wants a supply!

     

    They don't compost very easily image

    Composting them is useless, I know, but they acidify soil nicely, when used as a mulch.

    If your bagged larch needles accumulate anywhere near me, then I'd love some....
