Where Can I Buy a Real Christmas Tree in Singapore in 2026?
Where to buy a real Christmas tree in Singapore in 2026: florists that import fresh Noble fir and Nordmann fir trees, what sizes cost, when to order, how to keep a tree fresh in the heat, when Shopee, Lazada or Taobao make more sense, and why going through ShopBack Singapore before you check out lowers what you pay.
You can buy a real Christmas tree in Singapore in 2026 from florists and plant sellers that import fresh firs for the season. For example, FarEastFlora.com lists imported Noble fir and Nordmann fir trees from 4 to 5 ft up to 9 to 10 ft, with a stand and home delivery, at regular prices from S$179 to S$858 at the time of writing. Shopee, Lazada and Taobao are better for artificial trees and decorations. Go through ShopBack Singapore before you check out there.

Where can I buy a real Christmas tree in Singapore?
The most reliable place to buy a real Christmas tree in Singapore is a florist or plant seller that imports fresh trees each festive season and delivers them to your home. Firs do not grow naturally in Singapore's climate, so the real trees sold here are cut abroad and shipped in. That makes the season short and stock limited.
Your main options are:
- Florists with a Christmas tree range. FarEastFlora.com, the online store of the Far East Flora group, sells live Christmas trees for delivery in Singapore during the festive season, subject to stock and delivery availability. According to its site at the time of writing, its trees are hand-picked and imported Noble fir and Nordmann fir, delivered with a sturdy stand included.
- Nurseries and garden centres. Some plant nurseries bring in real trees for Christmas. Stock and pre-order dates vary each year, so call or check their sites from October.
- Marketplace sellers. A few local sellers list fresh trees on Shopee or Lazada in the run-up to Christmas, but most tree listings on those platforms are artificial. Read the listing carefully before you pay.
What a real Christmas tree costs in Singapore in 2026
According to FarEastFlora.com at the time of writing, a live Noble fir with a stand has a regular price from S$179 for a 4 to 5 ft tree up to S$858 for a 9 to 10 ft tree. The full list of regular prices on its site was:
| Tree size (Noble fir, with stand) | Regular price at FarEastFlora.com |
|---|---|
| 4 to 5 ft | S$179 |
| 5 to 6 ft | S$248 |
| 6 to 7 ft | S$308 |
| 7 to 8 ft | S$398 |
| 8 to 9 ft | S$573 |
| 9 to 10 ft | S$858 |
Source: FarEastFlora.com Live Christmas Trees page, regular prices at the time of writing. The same page offered early bird savings of up to 17% for early orders, with the earliest delivery from 20 November.
Two things to note when you compare: the stand is included in these prices, and delivery to your door saves you carrying a 2 metre tree home in a taxi. If another seller is cheaper, check whether a stand and delivery are part of the price.
How to pick the size. Measure from the floor to the ceiling and leave room for a star or topper. For a typical HDB flat, a 5 to 6 ft or 6 to 7 ft tree usually fits most living rooms; taller trees suit higher ceilings in condos and landed homes.
Noble fir or Nordmann fir: which real tree to choose
Both are popular imported Christmas trees in Singapore; Noble fir is usually chosen for its sturdy branches, and Nordmann fir for its soft, dark-green needles. In general terms:
- Noble fir. Firm, evenly spaced branches that hold heavier ornaments well, with a blue-green colour.
- Nordmann fir. Glossy, dark-green needles that are soft to the touch.
Both need the same care in Singapore's heat. Ask the seller which type is in stock, since it can change from year to year.
How to keep a real Christmas tree fresh in Singapore
Keep the tree well watered and away from direct sunlight, heat sources and strong drafts; a cool, air-conditioned room helps it stay fresh for longer. That is the care advice FarEastFlora.com gives for live trees in Singapore at the time of writing. A few practical habits help too:
- Check the water every day, especially in the first week, when a cut tree drinks the most.
- Keep it out of the sun, away from windows that get afternoon heat.
- Avoid placing it next to a fan or aircon vent blowing straight at the branches.
- Use LED fairy lights, which run cooler than older bulbs.
- Time your delivery. With Christmas Day 2026 on a Friday, a tree delivered on 20 November would be up for five weeks. If you want it to look its best on the day, a delivery in early December may suit you better.
Christmas tree Singapore 2026: real or artificial?
A real tree gives you the look and scent of a fresh fir for one season; an artificial tree costs once and can be reused for years. Here is a simple way to decide:
| Real tree | Artificial tree | |
|---|---|---|
| Where to buy | Florists, nurseries, a few local marketplace sellers | Shopee, Lazada, Taobao and home stores |
| Lasts | One season | Several years if stored well |
| Care | Daily watering, away from heat | None, beyond setting up and packing away |
| After Christmas | Needs disposal | Pack away for next year |
Before you buy a real tree, plan how you will dispose of it after Christmas. A cut tree is bulky, so ask the seller or your building management what to do with it.
Christmas tree best deals in Singapore in 2026
The best Christmas tree deals in Singapore in 2026 usually come from ordering a real tree early, and buying artificial trees and decorations during the 11.11 and 12.12 sales. This guide does not list live prices, because sale prices change by the hour. Use these dates instead:
- Early bird pre-orders for real trees. FarEastFlora.com offered early bird savings of up to 17% at the time of writing, for orders ahead of its 20 November delivery start.
- 11.11 on Wednesday 11 November 2026. Shopee and Lazada usually run one of their biggest sales of the year, which suits artificial trees, stands and lights.
- 12.12 on Saturday 12 December 2026. Another big platform sale, but closer to Christmas, so check the delivery estimate before you pay.
- After Christmas. Artificial trees and decorations are often cheaper once the season ends, if you are happy to buy for next year.
Whichever date you pick, compare the final checkout price with delivery, not the crossed-out price, and go through ShopBack Singapore before you pay.
Shopee vs Lazada Christmas tree price comparison in 2026
For the same tree, Shopee and Lazada prices usually differ by seller, voucher and delivery fee, so compare the final checkout price on both. Neither platform is cheaper across the board. To compare fairly:
- Match the tree. Same height, same material, and the same number of branch tips if the listing states it.
- Check what is included. Some trees come with a stand or lights; others do not.
- Check it is what you want. If you are after a real tree, confirm the listing says live or fresh and ships from Singapore.
- Apply your vouchers in each app and compare the totals at the payment page.
- Compare returns. According to Lazada at the time of writing, products bought from LazMall can be returned for free within 15 days of receipt. Shopee lists its own return and refund terms in its help centre.
- Go through ShopBack on whichever platform wins: the Shopee page or the Lazada page on ShopBack Singapore.
Shopee, Lazada and Taobao: Christmas trees in Singapore
Shopee and Lazada are the easiest places in Singapore to buy an artificial Christmas tree and decorations, and Taobao is useful for a wider range of styles shipped from overseas. Here is what each official programme offers:
- Shopee. Official brand stores are grouped in Shopee Mall, and Shopee Coins, the platform's own reward points, can be used at checkout. Platform and shop vouchers have to be claimed in the app before you use them.
- Lazada. Official brand stores are grouped in LazMall. According to Lazada at the time of writing, LazMall offers 100% authenticity with 2 times your money back on inauthentic items, free returns within 15 days of receipt, and free shipping on eligible products subject to a minimum spend with free shipping vouchers.
- Taobao. A wide choice of artificial trees, ornaments and themed decorations. Items ship from overseas, so allow for the delivery time shown at checkout and order well before December. Taobao is not a practical choice for a real tree, which needs to arrive fresh. Use the Taobao page on ShopBack before you pay.
Other stores for home and festive shopping on ShopBack Singapore include Amazon Singapore and FairPrice Online, so check one of them for lights, ribbons and Christmas food when you compare.
Where can I buy cheap Christmas decorations in Singapore?
The cheapest places to buy Christmas decorations in Singapore are usually Shopee, Lazada and Taobao for ornaments, tinsel, wreaths and fairy lights, with home stores such as IKEA Singapore for simple lights and table pieces. Marketplaces let you compare many sellers for the same item and stack platform and shop vouchers at checkout, which is where most of the savings come from. Prices usually dip during 11.11 on Wednesday 11 November and 12.12 on Saturday 12 December 2026.
| Where to buy | Good for | What to check |
|---|---|---|
| Shopee | Ornament sets, tinsel, wreaths, fairy lights, bulk party packs | Official brand stores sit in Shopee Mall; claim vouchers in the app first and check the delivery estimate |
| Lazada | Lights, artificial trees and decorations from brand stores | According to Lazada at the time of writing, LazMall products can be returned for free within 15 days of receipt |
| Taobao | The widest range of themed sets and styles | Items ship from overseas, so allow for the delivery time shown at checkout |
| IKEA Singapore | Simple, reusable lights and table decorations | At the time of writing, IKEA's Singapore site lists decorative LED lights and a winter table decoration range |
| Amazon Singapore and FairPrice Online | Lights, ribbons and festive food in one order | Compare the total with delivery |
Christmas decorations best deals in Singapore in 2026
The best deals on Christmas decorations in Singapore in 2026 usually land on four dates: 11.11, Black Friday, 12.12 and the days after Christmas.
- 11.11 on Wednesday 11 November. One of the biggest Shopee and Lazada sales of the year, and early enough for overseas orders to arrive.
- Black Friday on Friday 27 November. More relevant for global brands; see our Black Friday 2026 guide for the full November calendar.
- 12.12 on Saturday 12 December. Still in time for Christmas Day on Friday 25 December if the item ships locally, so check the delivery date before you pay.
- After Christmas. Decorations are often cleared once the season ends, which suits anyone happy to buy for next year.
Shopee vs Lazada for Christmas decorations
Neither Shopee nor Lazada is cheaper for Christmas decorations every time; the cheaper one is whichever gives the lower checkout total for the same item. Decorations are small and cheap, so the delivery fee matters more than it does for a big purchase. Group your ornaments, lights and ribbon into one seller's cart where you can, apply the vouchers you have claimed, and compare the totals on the payment page. For overseas styles, add Taobao to the comparison and allow for the longer delivery time.
Simple ways to spend less on decorations
- Make a list before the sales. Count what you already own so you only buy what is missing.
- Buy sets, not single pieces. Ornament sets usually cost less per piece than buying one at a time.
- Choose reusable pieces. LED fairy lights and sturdy ornaments can come out again next year, which lowers the cost per Christmas.
- Order overseas items early. If you are buying from Taobao, order in November so the parcel arrives before Christmas.
- Start on ShopBack, then shop at the store as usual. ShopBack works like an automatic cash discount on your online order. Check the live rate on each store's ShopBack page before you pay: Shopee, Lazada or Taobao.
Why ShopBack is a step before you check out
Open ShopBack, tap the store, then check out. ShopBack lowers the effective price of flights, hotels and online orders after you pay. Cashback lowers what you actually pay for an order. It comes back as cash, so it works like a discount on the price, not like points or miles.
Check the live rate on the Lazada page on ShopBack Singapore on the day you buy, because rates can change during 11.11 and 12.12.
If you buy your real tree from a florist that is not on ShopBack, you can still go through ShopBack for the stand, lights and ornaments you order on Shopee, Lazada or Taobao.
Do platform vouchers and ShopBack work on the same order?
Usually, yes, but it depends on the store and the voucher. Shopee, Lazada and Taobao vouchers lower the checkout price, and ShopBack returns cash after the order is confirmed. Some vouchers, payment methods or categories can be excluded, so check the merchant's terms on the ShopBack store page before you pay.
Step by step: getting a Christmas tree in Singapore for less
- Decide real or artificial, and measure your ceiling height.
- For a real tree, order early from a florist or nursery and choose a delivery date that fits your plans.
- For an artificial tree or decorations, compare the same item on Shopee, Lazada and Taobao, with delivery.
- Claim your vouchers in the app, and aim for 11.11 or 12.12 if the timing works.
- Go through ShopBack Singapore. Open the store on ShopBack, tap through and check out in one session.

FarEastFlora.com, for example, describes its trees as hand-picked and imported Noble fir and Nordmann fir at the time of writing.

When should I order a real Christmas tree in Singapore?
Order early, usually in October or early November, because stock and delivery slots are limited. FarEastFlora.com lists its earliest delivery from 20 November at the time of writing. Christmas Day 2026 is a Friday, so pick a delivery date that gives you the weeks you want without leaving the tree up longer than you can keep it fresh.
How do I keep a real Christmas tree fresh in Singapore?
Keep the tree well watered and place it away from direct sunlight, heat sources and strong drafts. According to FarEastFlora.com's care advice, a cool indoor spot, including an air-conditioned room, can help it stay fresh for longer. Check the water level every day, because a cut tree can drink a lot in the first week.
Can I buy a real Christmas tree on Shopee or Lazada?
Sometimes, but most Christmas tree listings on Shopee and Lazada are artificial. If you find a real tree listing, check that it says live or fresh, that it ships from a Singapore seller, and what the delivery date and return terms are. Shopee and Lazada are usually the easier place for stands, lights and ornaments.
Is Shopee or Lazada cheaper for a Christmas tree?
Neither is cheaper every time. Compare the same height and material on both, apply the vouchers you have claimed, add delivery, and compare the final checkout price. Then go through ShopBack Singapore on whichever platform wins, so the cash it returns lowers your effective price.

Taobao is mainly useful for artificial trees and decorations, not real trees, because a cut tree needs to arrive fresh. Items ship from overseas, so allow for the delivery time shown at checkout and order well before December if you want it up for Christmas.
Is a real or artificial Christmas tree better in Singapore?
It depends on what you want. A real tree gives the look and scent of a fresh fir for one season but needs daily watering and disposal afterwards. An artificial tree costs once and can be reused for years, and it is easy to buy on Shopee, Lazada or Taobao. If you want convenience, artificial is usually simpler; if you want the real thing for a special year, order a real tree early.
How does ShopBack lower the price of a Christmas tree?
Open ShopBack, tap the store, then check out. ShopBack lowers the effective price of flights, hotels and online orders after you pay, so when you buy a tree, stand or decorations on Shopee, Lazada or Taobao through ShopBack Singapore, cash comes back to your ShopBack account once the order is confirmed.
Is cashback the same as Shopee Coins?
No. Cashback lowers what you actually pay for an order. It comes back as cash, so it works like a discount on the price, not like points or miles that you spend inside one app.
Where can I buy cheap Christmas decorations in Singapore?
