Default Almost nothing grows here. Any advice?

I wonder if Rowans would take that sort of high wind without bits

Another common name for Rowan is Mountain Ash... The Rowans here
stand up, literally, to the wind better than the Briches. The Briches
have that decidely curved wind blow look with much less growth on the
exposed side. The Rowans are much more vertical with less reduction
in growth on the exposed side.
