TIA Steve http://i86.photobucket.com/albums/k8...volunteer1.jpg It's not an ideal photograph, but I'm fairly sure that it's Sycamore (Acer psuedoplatanus); IIRC the Scots call the Plane. I'd think you'd want to get that out before it undermines the wall. http://i86.photobucket.com/albums/k8...wann/tree1.jpg Might be a Locust (Robinia pseudoacacia) but I can't really tell. http://i86.photobucket.com/albums/k8...ellowshrub.jpg Again I'm not sure, but I think it's Lonicera nitida. http://i86.photobucket.com/albums/k8...wann/fern1.jpg Pass. http://i86.photobucket.com/albums/k8...evergreen1.jpg Pass. -- Stewart Robert Hinsley Totally agree with Lonicera nitida--(Baggerson's Gold?) and Maple The tree pic blows up to show a bit more detail. Looks like it has rusty red branches. |

The leaves go almost white in bright sun, there is a dark green variety, also a silver edged leaf variety to compliment it. easy to strike from cuttings. A lovely shrub for full sun/partial shade certainly brightens up dull corners of the garden. regards Cineman http://i86.photobucket.com/albums/k8...wann/fern1.jpg http://i86.photobucket.com/albums/k8...evergreen1.jpg |

Will get cut back, go brown, in a hard winter but seems to come back OK. -- Regards Bob "Never get so busy making a living that you forget to make a life" |

Yikes! I think you might be right. My book says it can grow to 40m. It's about 4m at the moment and fits in to my suburban garden very nicely. I'm not sure what to do now - it's a lovely tree, but maybe I should take it out now, while I still can. |

I've had a closer look and I think it is almost identical to the Cyrtomium falcatum image from www.msrosenthal.com on the above Google gallery. maybe I didn't help by calling it evergreen. Come to think of it, it does die back each year and the image I put up had some of the leaves starting to change colour - sorry. Steve |
