British Christmas Tree Growers Association

The British Christmas Tree Growers Association is the trade association for those who grow specialist Christmas Trees in Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Membership is open to those who intend to grow or are growing trees for the Christmas market. Associate membership is available for those who provide goods and services to the Christmas Tree sector.

Members of the BCTGA cultivate trees specially for the Christmas festivities.

Annual Competition

The BCTGA holds an annual competition to find the best grower from their membership. Entries to the competition are divided into four categories; Pine, Fir, Spruce and Wreath. All trees must be between 1.8m and 2.2m in height. Each entrant is allowed up to two entries in any given category and the judges look for foliage, shape and marketability.

The competition awards a prize for 'Grower of the Year' and the winner is afforded the honour of providing their tree to be the Downing Street Christmas tree that year. The winner of the best wreath category also provides a wreath to be hung on the famous black door.

Rice's theorem

Theorem in computability theory In computability theory, Rice's theorem states that all non-trivial semantic properties of programs are undecidable. A semantic property is one about the program's behavior (for instance, does the program terminate for all inputs?), unlike a syntactic property (for instance, does the program contain an if-then-else statement?). A non-trivial property is one which is neither true for every program, nor false for every program. The theorem generalizes the undecid...
