Not the best of pics but here's where it is - it has two leylandi and a hawthorn behind it.  This is the back of our garden. We have a few more Lleylandi there, some Buddleia, a flowering currant, a Viburnum Opulus, a Blackthorn, a Pea tree, a hop that grows up trellis and a Ceanothus as well as the palm you can just about see. When that lot get bigger I think we can be quietly confident that we'll have a nice private garden. And some lovely plants to boot. |

Thanks Emsey - I should've waited un til the sun had come round a bit and then there wouldn't be so much shade but I just wanted to get the photo done and posted asap. : It's braved a lot of harsh weather since it's been in - the strong winds started almost as soon as it was planted and it's stood up to the lot. |

Must admit to feeling a bit weird taking the picture. There was a lady eating lunch at the window behind it and I just hope she wasn't looking my way when I pressed the button! As soon as I saw it, I thought of you and your dilemma and thought the price would make you feel better. Keith That's really nice of you Keith, and it's done the trick too. ;D So that one's £149?  I haven't done badly then! ;D I haven't seen it for a week but it's a really healthy plant and looks about as bushy as that one too. Might make you feel better even more now, Mrs B. I saw another one, at a different G/C, about the same size for, wait for it..........£179!! That's taking the p**s now, isn't it?!! Keith |
