The message
from Janet Baraclough.. contains
these words:

2. Is there any point in paying £199 for a 5m tree?


Not in my opinion. I would buy a 2 or 3 yr whip (bare-root from postal
tree nursery such as Buckingham's), now is the perfect time to plant.
Cost, around £2 plus p. and.p. It will establish and grow much faster
than any containerised tree, and be healthier and stronger.


And much less likely to blow over in a high wind.
