Good luck with them all, bit especially the Elm. I'd be interested in
hearing more about that one. Is it one of the new American Elms?


None of us will be around to see it matu

Thank you for your well wishes.


Luckily, I have a mature Chinese Elm in the yard. Such a graceful
tree.

Tomorrow morning the crew will be here to plant my five new trees;
One Fat Albert Colorado blue spruce, about 6'
One Colorado blue spruce, about 10'
One sugar maple "Legacy", 4" caliper, about 14'
One elm "Accolade", 5" caliper, about 14'
One double flowering horse chestnut "Baumanii", 5' caliper, about 12'

This is a combination of my last Christmas and birthday gift, I've
waited patiently and am looking forward to the event. I will have
pictures.
