Anyone interested in applying?  Maybe we could look into Community Online applying and see if we can get a group together to help planting in the area.

Yes, this gets my support.

 

There's a guy moved into a house close by just over a year ago. There's a Cherry Blossom Tree on the front lawn and one of the first things he did was lobb chunks off it with a hacksaw.

 

And is just about survived, managing to glow long thin branches in the spring with a little bit of blossom.

 

Yesterday he was at it again with the hacksaw. I don't hold out much hope for it. There were shrubs and trees planted by the builders on the front lawns of all the houses on this estate. All but a very few have been cut down.
