Day 1 - Trees and clean up
This weekend is clear-up central, getting everything ready for the ground workers to start tomorrow. We've also had our trees delivered last Friday by Barchams so we'll make a start on planting them up today.
We have tulip trees for the driveway, a magnolia for the bed on the north-east corner, a mix of sorbus and cherry for the border with the bungalow and an amelanchier to sit by the back fence between the pergola and the patio.
