![]() Tree no. 1 - Giant Redwood August 2015 |
Sue and Graeme's already had an impressive Wellingtonia in their superb woodland garden. It grows by a ditch so must enjoy having its roots in the damp earth for a good proportion of the summer. In August 2015 they took delivery of two new trees to add to their collection, another Giant Redwood (Sequoiadendron giganteum / Wellingtonia) and a Dawn Redwood (Metasequoia glyptostroboides), they can be seen below in their pots prior to planting. It will be great to see how they fare over the coming years, Sue's boundless enthusiam for her garden means they are sure to be well looked after. |
