And thinking about it, how did the FC plant health bloke miss this?! 

Because he doesn’t know his arse from his elbow. 😂
What is it you want from the woodland, is it long term reward for your kids or habitat/wildlife creation etc? 

Site specifics like soil type, temperatures (high and low)and exposure to winds etc will all be a factor in planting choice. 

I have planted all kinds of small experimental blocks over the years, looking into the future proofing of forestry, with some very surprising results from the less obvious species.
