Tree News.

One of the local timber hounds, a gent of distinguished years told me today that he palnted an Oak tree in Carterton in the 60's.

It had to go (booo hooo) but in that time it had aquired a girth of nearly a metre in diameter.

Now thats not too bad and should encourage others to plant trees of maximum utility as well as beauty.
