Ten silver birch arrived this morning! Very Healthy. Very Green. Soil, perfectly just damp, and after a phone call from you for advice, trees trimmed to encourage a tree and not a bush. Beautifully packaged in cardboard boxes named and numbered. Excellent communication and delivery in adverse Coronavirus times. Now to embark on my woodland glade vision…all in my front garden…perfectly possible. Thank you.
