    Christmas decorations

    does anybody in Hong Kong buy christmas wreaths? or just trees? is there a market for smaller sized live trees?

    I know the living quarters tend to be small in many areas so I was just curious - I have spent time in Hong Kong but never over the Christmas holiday...

    Places to order Christmas trees will appear closer to the time. Even Ikea sells them.

    I have certainly seen plenty of Christmas spirit - especially the commercial type! In Shenzhen if you go up Baoan Rd there are two huge commercial blocks with a huge range of artificial trees. I met several HKers buying up big. It seems that with small apartments, and limited storage most is thrown away at the end ofthe season.
    I was also amazed to see a lot of live trees in flower market, not that cheap, but most sold fairly quickly. Not sure what you mean by smaller sized trees? Hope that helps.

    where do you usually order them? and when does the ordering period start? November? end of November?
