In the Stockport/South Manchester area.

I have a baby oak about 15 c.m. high,
also a small horse chestnut same height.

It's tree planting time and we haven't got room for them to grow here.

Do some guerilla gardening. My mum has been cultivating the local bypass

I saw a very charming documentary on BBC ALBA a while back about some aristocrat who bought a scottish island sight-unseen in his youth and now lives in the old folks home there (and is quite quite old) his one regret for all the marvelous things his done in his lifetime was "I wish I'd planted trees when I was young"

Was thinking that if someone's child planted it, they could go back 50 years later and say wow that's huge and it's mine and give it a hug.

I'm trying to germinate some giant redwood seeds at the moment for a bit of guerilla planting 🙂

I've had a lot of success with Japanese Knot Weed and Himalayan Balsam 🙂
