Drews favourite Tree?

[Wayne]

I am unable to get to Drews funeral so I have decided to plant a small grove to trees in my nature reserve in his honour.

Could someone who knew him better tell me what his favourite tree was so I can order some for planting?

The area will be selected and prepared tonight but the trees will be planted later in year as its a bit late.


I will plant 25 trees one for each year.

I know he liked silver birch for its well known bushy uses but I'm not 100% sure if it was his favourite.

I have selected an area of the nature reserve for the planting and will keep people posted once I have sorted the trees.

 

[Elen Sentier]

that's a great idea, do keep us posted in case we could contribute in some way. Pix would be good in due course ?

If you do, make sure you give abominable scouse monster the google location, he's going to do a map of all the trees planted for the family, tis over on the thread here Someone mentioned they were planting an apple which seems a lovely bushie way, I can imagine a soul feeling pretty satisfied watching a passer by pause for a chomp on their way past

Mines a horse chestnut, for the medicinal and the kids having fun with the conkers. I hope he'd approve

A Birch species sounds like a good choice. There is a thread he started about his joy at identifying his first Birch tree.

This is one of the many reasons this site is so great, if you don't mind I think I migh do something along those lines too.

Don't know if I'll be able to make it to the moot but will plant a fruit tree as well in his honor. I miss him and his fun way of looking at life very much.
