Can a cut Christmas tree be replanted?

I would try planting ours outdoors but it would probably just rust.

I saw a Christmas tree grower on TV dipping the cut ends in some jollop to stop them re-growing.

Really? Did the grower actually say this? The chances of a Christmas tree producing new roots are close to zero. From the moment a tree is cut, mid November probably, it's dieing.

Possibly the intention was to prevent sap loss and sticky residues but I doubt any grower would bother.

And that's what we are keeping

Is it worth keeping?

Yes as our hedgehog house lives behind it and also we get quite a few garden birds using the lower section.

Plus if we did decide to dig it up at a later date it will give me something touse as leverage on the rootball
