I am really into tree sources this winter, i dont have to look out the window, I know whats out there and its frightening.. I live in the inner city and my neighbors dont think twice about damaging a tree or cut tin one down. Neighbors next door cut the branches off one side of a tree so they could get that big bouncing thing for the kids to jump up and down! My landlord cut down a huge tree because the roots was damaging the pipes underneath the house. Maybe this is justified, but it got to be something else you can do.
So far this month I ordered about 15 trees, most of them Poplars to shade my Hosta garden. I cringe when i see the neighbors or the cable people start chopping on the trees.. I even join the Arbor Day Foundation so I could get trees at a minimum and they offer wonderful information about trees in your area. So far I have another fifteen or twenty. Most of these trees will be grown in pots, but just think i will always have a tree to plant.
Way yo go Sharon
