Batsford Arboretum, Cotswolds. It is their show-piece at the moment. Nice arboretum and well laid out. The flora is tremendous all on a south facing escarpment so all flowers out early in that little micro-climate they have created. Japanese Maples everywhere too!

 

Thought so!!

Pollarded this bur elm, you can stand up in the hole inside it, I am going back to fell it when we have a woodmizer organised for the stem, I think it's just surface Burr but too good to firewood.

Oak pruning from today. It had gone mental for phototropism, long thin branches are like jelly to stand on!

 

Gnarlyoak did majority of climbing and I had a little bash too!

 

Little chipper did well. Improvised chip box on the pickup was filled. Was mulching street trees on the way home :briggrin:

I was told Yew trees were planted in graveyards as the poison in there leaves and timber kills any weary souls not wanting to pass over to the otherside .

 

Well sounds cool .

I thought the yews were planted to make longbows to help keep the French on the right side of the English Channel, and they were planted in church yards as that was the only place grazing animals couldn't get to them.
