Elder Disaster

The elder tree I discussed in an earlier thread/post (09/05/2006 @ 00:21)
has now been blown over by the wind.
It may try to regrow from the bits of root that you can't dig out, but
I would not recommend a wild elderberry tree for a small suburban
garden. It is too much of a weed.
And the birds deposit the purple berry juice and seeds over everything
- making you unpopular with the neighbours.
P.S. Anyone recognise the landmark in the background?
Forth rail bridge perhaps?
It is deceased, gone and is no more. Treat the incident as a Golden
opportunity to redesign and replant what will be a large area.
Sensible advice.

Martin Brown
