Thanks for that Rusty saved Is this the same advice for all trees?

Any that I can think of. The adage used to be (in France) that you
plant
a vine over a dead donkey.

I planted a honeysuckle over a dead cat [victim of a prat driving too
fast
through the village]. It grew very leggy but didn't do much otherwise.


I would have thought it might have stopped growing after that...

Lol. After 36 years I still get caught out by the EA sense of humour :-}
She was a lovely little cat, and just had to have a climber, being an
intrepid climber herself.
