    Any suggestions on where to buy a tree in South Dublin that actually smells of pine?

    The last few years the ones we've gotten have no smell whatsoever - not sure if it's a particular type we need or if they're sprayed with anything.

    But suggestions in south dublin where to buy would be appreciated.

    Go up to glencree and pick one to be cut down. Fresh ones always smell best.

    I've gone to a tree farm in kilmolin, outside enniskerry, for the last few years. It can be great fun picking out the tree with the family.

    Get a regular fake plastic one.
    Spray Pine Toilet Air-freshener.
    Hang a few car refreshers, "Royal Pine".
    Done!

    Not at all, get a good long trunk on the fresh cut one, planted it on a buckets of fresh earth and gravel and keep it watered. Then decorate the bucket! Itll well last until new year

    Then any of the farms would be your best bet, plenty up around Glencree and kilakea.
