Hi Kay,
could you please tell me/ remind me, what the name of that
garden centre up near Yeadon was called again please?

I went to another one today to find out what type of conifer I have that is
discoloured. I found out that it was not a juniper, as I first thought , but
a Chamaecyparis, probably the C.I. Elwoodii variety. I was told that the
discolouration etc was most likely to be wind burn, coupled with dryness and
compactness of the root ball. Further I was told that the discolouration is
irrecoverable, that is it won't go back to green again.

So now I want to replace the 2 said conifers with something a bit more
tolerant of the wind.

Thanks
