WITH just six weeks until Christmas day, a tree-mendous effort is being made to get ready for the big day.

Visitors to Wakehurst Place in the festive period can put themselves in the running for a bespoke Christmas tree.

Kew’s Sussex country garden teamed up with The Hanging Lantern Company to put more than £300 of unique festive prizes up for grabs, including shopping vouchers.

Visitors will also be able to enjoy some of the creations of the Uckfield–based business, including laser cut hanging snowflake decorations, Christmas Tree lanterns and intricate Christmas bunting at Wakehurst’s Seed Cafe.
