The lumber?  Their beauty?



Where I live, there's a woodland at the bottom of my road. I live in a very "Green and pleasant land" part of England. Can't stand big cities. The sound of the wind blowing through the trees is magical at night. Doesn't matter what type they are. It's always very "Midsummer Night's Dream."

Trees can be very nice.
Always stay cheerful, be polite, kind, and understanding. Accepting yourself as the woman you are is very liberating.  Never underestimate the appreciation and respect of authenticity.  Help connect a person to someone that may be able to help that person.  Be brave, be strong.  A TRUE friend is a treasure.  Relationships are very important, people are important, and the sooner we all realize that the better off the world will be.  Try a little kindness.  Be generous with your time, energy, wisdom, and resources.   Inconvenience yourself to help someone.   I am a brown eyed, brown haired woman.

The irony of it is... my favourite movie is "The Blair Witch Project" where trees aren't very nice at all. ;D

I have not watched that movie.

Bradford pears bloom nicely, even shaped somewhat like a pear, but they are weak trees.

Silver maples are also fast growing but structurally weak trees.

Some people "top" their trees but this is really not good for the tree.

Some people must like the flaring out of branches at the tops of the trees.


Topped trees also look really weird when the tree has no leaves.  Ugly.

When laying mulch around a tree, always keep the mulch away from the trunk.

Mulch should not be touching the tree trunk.  Sometimes I see lots of mulch around trees, with mulch at its highest level touching the tree trunk.  Not good.  You do not want to promote decay and too much moisture of tree roots.

I've heard that the trick is to graft other pear scions onto the rowdy Bradford rootstock.
