A Sad Farewell!!

Yes, we are selling plants at full speed now as the bare rooted hedging season is upon us.

As Mike said, the Forestry team are out there getting muddy boots by planting trees! However, not only do they plant trees but sometimes it is necessary to cut them down. This is what has happened to our beloved sycamore tree at the entrance to our nursery.



The sycamore went through several consultations with our qualified Arboriculturalists starting with a machine called a resistograph to get a Picus Tomography.

(Please visit the NEWS page on our main website to view forester Adam Quant's report and photos)

The report states the results and provides photos to show why the decision to fell was taken.

It is sad when a tree has to be taken out but they are living just like us humans and when the time comes.........!!
