Nice 1 Andy, i never saw the previous posts with the front loader, thats excellent. All too often quads are just there to race about from A to B on, i have had a few but always sold them as they were close to useless on site, its great to see yours getting used for what they are made for:thumbup1:

The other plants look good, bar a touch of mildew here and there. Yhey have put on new growth well, flowered nicely (although they were in flower anyway) The large Cornus kousa suffered with the hot winds, but has started to re-hydrate well, but thats one plant that needs re-locating tomorrow, so I'll probably kill it now:001_rolleyes: All in all, things looking well considering the heat when they were shipped in and hoofed about.

Today....the final assault. Rotovate the bed, dig in the dwarf pines, transplant the viburnum, top dress with soil improver. Then re-locate the Cornus kousa to its new home. Many thanks to the digger driver Glenn for all his help and assistance over the last couple of days, I may have struggled a little without him :thumbup1:

I'm happy with the result, these have been the biggest trees to date I've had to handle, now we just have to keep them alive somehow!

Oh I'm always popping over to check on things, keep on eye on all the plantings, check up on the vet Oaks and Chestnuts around the park and so on, and I should be getting another load of Rhodies to plant sometime soon, more of the Yamazukikawasaki strain (well I cant remember the name at this time of night). There is always something to do there, I'll have to pop in and brief the gardener on watering on Thursday, so he shares the load, the client waters at weekends.
