TREES!

Uncategorized 1 Minute

This weekend was also a time for trees. I had two trees when I moved in. I’ve identified them as a Red Maple and a Northern White Cedar.

I contacted Trees Today, a local nursery, and asked about having them trimmed and assessed for general health. We’ll see when they can come out to take a look.

Another tree has also joined the family. Last week at work they were giving away white oak saplings for Earth Day. Yesterday I planted mine 😀

I staked out a home for it in the northwest corner of the front lawn.

Dug a hole and put in the sapling.

TaDa! A bit off-center, but then again, so am I.

Had to cut the wire mesh down to size. Shout-out to Mom and Dad for my trusty wire-cutters that I’ve had since I was 8 years old 🙂

Dug a little trench…

Cute little tree. We’ll monitor the progress.
