New Trees

Possibly our last delivery ever from the UK (hopefully not, but it felt fortunate they made it through all the chaos. Companies are now telling me they can’t now post to the EU from the UK, some temporarily due to lack of clarity and some permanently due to high costs - so good to be seeing the benefits of brexit!)

We got a few new apple trees and a crab apple to go in the orchard below the house, also a mini apricot, plum and cherry to go in the potager garden with other fruit. Hopefully one day under a fruit cage. We have some other mini trees that aren’t doing well on the bank, so we plan on moving some of them to this spot too.

This pear in the orchard is rubbish, so Doug is chopping it down to make room for the crab apple.

These are the mini trees for the potager

They all look like twigs

I dug a hole, we decided it was in the wrong place, so I filled it in. Poppy unfilled it again, how helpful!
