Wollemi Pine

"Sacha" wrote in message I'm generally of the same view as you Sacha. Some trees do have to go sometimes but I get quite irritated when I see truly magnificent and significant trees being felled when a bit of simple thought could prevent it. I agree with you over the unnecessary felling of mature trees. But that doesn't stop me feeling OK about planting trees that I know will only be around for 10 or 20 years before they have to go - to my mind, that gives extra trees. Not all of us are lucky enough to be able to live in the countryside or in areas of large gardens, and an urban landscape consisting entirely of ornamental cherries, Sorbus and the like starts to feel a little 'samey' after a while. I know the copper beech which the church next door planted 8ft from our house may have to go eventually, but meanwhile I am happy to see it there and to get enjoyment from it. I'm not going to lose sleep because it won't make it to maturity. -- Kay |
