hopefully i will be able to transplant a few before fall....
a few years ago i got four but only one has survived...
now how great is that.. 14 free trees.. 8) ;D
Ah trees, they are soooo wonderful!
They start out small, and grow into tall, strong
providers of shade, and protection and shelter in
natures way.
:)
Love your pics also, great idea to leave them
where they sprouted and surround them with
rocks.
